Hmmm... Sometimes, I am thankful for youtube.com. 'Cause I get to come across 'real' local artists. Meron pala sa 'Pinas non. haha! jk! There was Levi Celerio and am sure some others I'm not aware of. Anyway, one doesn't have to shout and sing in a shrill voice and be popular in the mainstream to be considered a music artist.
This is Ysagani Ybarra. He's the guy who originally made the music and lyrics to "Bilog na Naman ang Buwan". I'd rather watch performances like this any day, over those shown on Sunday noontime shows on some commercial local TV channels. The latter are really utterly boring, unoriginal, rubbish drivel.
And here's Ysagani singing his piece "Bilog na Naman ang Buwan". I'd say he's quite an interesting folk artist.
