LANY, a pop-rock band that was formed in 2015 and is comprised of Paul Klein and Jake Goss, has taken the music industry by storm with its distinctive sound, which is characterized by lyrics that are contemplative and backbeats that are propelled by synthesizers. With a strong core following consisting of millennials and Gen Zs, LANY was able to break through the barriers of the thriving music industry in Los Angeles and become a multi-platinum sensation that performs in arenas that are completely sold out all over the world.

The infectious melodies and deeply moving lyrics of LANY have made them famous. Music videos for their singles “ILYSB,” “13,” and “Malibu Nights” have gone viral, winning over listeners all over the globe. Their fifth studio album, “a beautiful blur,” was a smashing success in the US, Australia, and Asia including the Philippines. Songs such as “XXL,” “Alonica,” “Love At First Fight,” and “Cause You Have To” are available for streaming on services like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. The album’s emotive and personal quality has earned it high accolades from critics.

LANY stands out from their contemporaries due to their uncanny ability to effortlessly blend genres. The band has developed a signature sound that feels both fresh and nostalgic at the same time as it draws from various influences that include synth-pop, electronica, and even indie rock. Paul Klein’s silky-smooth vocals are perfectly complemented by the band’s lush instrumentation and provide a soundscape that connects on a much deeper level.

And with lyrics that often reflect the highs and lows of romantic relationships as typified by fan-favorite tracks like “ILYSB,” “Good Girls,” “13,” and “You!” “dancing in the kitchen” and most recently, “XXL,””Alonica,” “Love At First Fight,” and “Cause You Have To,” LANY’s music resonate with fans who can relate to their messages that are both heartwarming and heartbreaking.

Having performed in the Philippines on numerous occasions, it’s no surprise then that LANY is again including the country in its ongoing world tour dubbed a beautiful blur. The band will perform at the Philippine Arena on October 12 and at the Waterfront Cebu Hotel & Casino from October 13 to 15.

The fact that LANY will be performing three nights in Cebu makes the Waterfront dates unique because they are the first international artist or group to do so. Presented by Live Nation Philippines and the Tourism Promotions Board (TPB), the three-day concert highlights Cebu as a top tourist destination for its rich historical heritage, vibrant culture, and beautiful sceneries. It also showcases Cebu as a preferred venue for international concerts, music festivals, and nightlife, all in an effort to promote the Department of Tourism’s “Love The Philippines” campaign. To market and promote the Philippines domestically and internationally as a world-class tourism and MICE destination, in strategic partnership with private and public stakeholders to deliver a unique high-value experience for visitors, significantly contributing to increased arrivals, receipts, and investments to the country—which is very much aligned with LANY’s concerts in the Philippines, especially in Cebu.

And a unique, high-value experience is exactly what the Cebu-based fans are getting with LANY, as they bring their brand of pop rock to the Queen City of the South.
