THE IMMORTAL AEGIS BAND!

We're faced with all the 6 members of the Aegis Band, five girls and a man, whom the girls tease as already being like one of them. Of course, they're just kidding. It's nothing more than long years of close friendship and togetherness... close to eleven years to be exact. It's hard to believe that a musical group could last this long in the business of making music, traveling to foreign shoes, sharing rooms, food, stories and lives. But that's the reality. The band has truly become a family after years of shared experiences. Furthermore, they are not merely a family. Due to the potpourri of native roots within the band, the AEGIS members also seem to represent the three major islands of the Philippines.

Sisters Mercy Sunot and younger Juliet Sunot, the lead vocalists, come all the way from Cagayan de Oro. Stella Maries Galindo is from Misamis Occidental. Vilma Goloviogo's from Manila, while bass guitarist Rowena "Weng" Pinpin is a Pampagueno. The only male member, Rey Abenoja, hails from Southern Leyte. To these Aegeans, having joined Aegis is the best thing that has happened to them. Sure, they had been playing their music with other groups before, but it was only when they got together as Aegis that they felt this strong bond, an unseen link that has been seeing them through all these years.
