Karl Ramirez

As one writer pointed out, Karl Ramirez writes music with “fresh optimism and truthful empathy ... breathing fresh air into the progressive music tradition.” A collaboration of rock, pop, and electronic, his music ventures into new ways of articulating people’s issues, collective and social action. His latest single “Pagbabago para sa Karaniwang Tao” [2013] (Change for the common person) is a catchy tune about the Filipino’s aspiration for real change, not just for a few but for the many “karaniwang tao”.
