The male group was thrilled to represent the Philippines at Japan's biggest music festival, held at IMPACT Challenger Hall in Bangkok, Thailand, on Aug. 23-24.

The festival featured global acts Alicia Keys, Camila Cabello, Black Eyed Peas, BABYMETAL, and more. BGYO members Gelo, Akira, JL, Mikki, and Nate performed their latest single, “Headlines,” “The Light (Thai version),” “Heartstrings,” and “All These Ladies,” which reached Spotify PH’s Viral top 50. They also sang their Filipino songs “Andito Lang” and “Gigil.”

The Summer Sonic gig was BGYO’s second visit to Thailand this year, following the group’s guest appearance at Boss CKM’s “Dream Warrior Concert” in July, where they performed “Heartstrings” and “All These Ladies.”
