The Filipino band brings its acclaimed sophomore album, AFTER OURS to life in an ambitious orchestral production, ahead of its international debut at AXEAN Festival 2026 in Bali, Indonesia
Manila, Philippines – Filipino city pop band ALYSON is set to headline their first major concert with AFTER OURS: Live and in Full!, happening on July 17, 2026, at Aster Events Place in Mandaluyong City. The special show will bring the band’s acclaimed sophomore album to life through expansive arrangements, immersive production, and a revitalized live music experience unlike anything they’ve presented before.
Known for their lush sonic brew of Manila Sound, Japanese city pop, Brazilian funk, ‘80s OPM, and jazz, the five-piece act will perform the entirety of AFTER OURS alongside a full orchestra, offering audiences fresh interpretations that highlight the album’s sophistication and depth. The concert also marks a creative leap for the band, who have taken on a more active role in co-producing the show, further honing its artistic direction from concept to execution.
“Preparations are going exceptionally well,” the band shares in a press statement. “We’ve been rehearsing for this show as a band for a long time now, so we’re confident that we can put on a good show. We’ve also been rehearsing with our orchestra, and it’s another experience to hear our music played altogether like this with so many talented people. The production team and our management have also been working double time to get this show off the ground, so we’re truly thankful for all their help.”

Apart from the orchestral collaboration, ALYSON hints that the audience can expect even more surprises throughout the evening.
The Summer Nights band reveals, “While we make no secret of the involvement of the orchestra and their hand in elevating our performance, we think there’s still room for surprises. Maybe some special guest or two, maybe some unexpected numbers. What we can say is that it’s a setlist you can only see at a show like this. You’ll have to be there to find out.”
Beyond the music, AFTER OURS: Live and in Full! is the band’s most ambitious production to date, reflecting years of growth, collaboration, and a desire to create a vital connection with their audience on a deeply personal level.
“This is, to date, the largest and most involved show we’ve ever done,” explains the band. “We’ve never played anything with this many people involved on and off the stage. It’s honestly evolved into something we never imagined we’d be able to do. We’re just happy to share this moment with everyone who’s supported us and treat them to an experience that’s beyond even what we imagined when we started this!”
The concert comes at an exciting time for ALYSON. Next month, the band will make its international festival debut at the AXEAN Festival in Bali, Indonesia, taking place on August 29 and 30 at Jimbaran Hub.
AFTER OURS: Live and in Full is co-presented by Offshore Music PH and GNN, with support from ONErpm.
