Ahead of their repeat concert in February 9, Tanaw Collective has released their first official single, “Landslide,” across all digital music platforms worldwide.
A poignant and minimalist cover of Fleetwood Mac's iconic 1975 hit, “Landslide” represents their shared sentiment of letting go and embracing new beginnings both in careers and personal lives, according to a statement.
“Landslide is a song that we all know and love,” shares Barbie Almalbis. “I think each of us has covered it at some point. The first version I actually heard was the Smashing Pumpkins cover. I was in high school, and I immediately connected with it. The song's themes of life, love, and the shifting seasons have only deepened in meaning for us as we've all grown older together.”
Aia de Leon recalls the pivotal moment when Hannah Romawac sparked the idea to record the song. “This seems to have launched the habit of us recording songs after we have jammed it,” the "Sundo" act explains. “I can't stress enough how awesome it truly is to be able to have all these tools and technology available to artists nowadays. All of us have recording capabilities at different levels. For this track, we recorded in different places--Barbie's home studio became the hub for Acel, Lougee, and Hannah, while Kitchie recorded her vocal takes with her trusty Rode condenser mic in her home in Spain. I also recorded my vocal tracks here from home on the south side.”
Almalbis adds, “Recording with the girls is always such a fun experience--50% work and 50% catching up. It's a blessing to do something we love with people we love.”
The stripped-down version of “Landslide” was mixed and mastered by Angee Rozul and is being distributed via House of Tunes.
Fans can look forward to hearing the special arrangement of “Landslide” live at the “Tanaw: The Repeat concert,” scheduled for February 9, 2025 (Sunday), at the Newport Performing Arts Theater in Pasay City at 8:00 p.m.
The sold-out concert celebrates the enduring bond between the iconic artists and their devoted fans, offering new interpretations of their beloved original songs and enhanced by a symphonic backing from The Manila String Machine on select tracks.
This concert marks a monumental moment for Tanaw Collective, as it brings together the talents of these women whose individual and collective contributions have profoundly shaped the Pinoy rock scene for decades.
