The 1975 first left their mark in the Philippines in 2014 for a series of mall shows. The fans’ insistent demanding resulted to the English rock band coming back a year after. Their first headline show in Manila was held in Mall Of Asia Arena last January 2015.
And just when we thought the lads won’t be coming back again soon, MMI Live’s official announcement made fans go ballistic. One cannot have too much of The 1975, I must say. What made everyone gush even more was the impossibility of getting to see and hear six world-class acts for the price of one, turned possible in a snap. The 1975 performed once again in Mall of Asia Arena with other In The Mix artists Twin Pines, Elle King, Third Eye Blind, Panic! at the Disco, and James Bay.

“Does he take care of you? Or could I easily fill his shoes?”
From the typical “dressed in black from head to toe” in 2013-2015, The 1975 added color to their lives and brought their “New Era” in Manila this 2016. That was one concert we’ll never forget. I honestly can’t wait for the next MMI Live show!
