Sabrina at 2015 Asia songfest

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines – Asia’s Acoustic Sweetheart Sabrina (photo) is another source of pride for Filipinos as she recently represented the Philippines at the 2015 Asia Song Festival held last Oct. 11 at Busan Asiad Main Stadium in Busan, South Korea. Sabrina performed alongside Asia’s top music acts like K-Pop artists EXO, GOT7, Red Velvet and B.T.S, NGT48 from Japan and William Chan from China. She debuted her new original single Hypnotized (which will be included on her all-original album scheduled next year) at the said festival aside from singing a track from her latest album Lost Stars, which is now popular in Korea.

But the highlight of the event is her collaboration on stage with famous K-Pop group B1A4 for the song Lonely, where Sabrina performed the song in Korean. It was the group’s request for Sabrina to have a duet with them. The 45,000 audience at the stadium loved the duet that it endeared her to the Korean fans.

Asia Song Festival is held every year since 2004 in Korea gathering the best singers in Asia and sponsored by the Korea Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. Previous Philippine representatives include R&B singer Kyla and MYMP.

Sabrina also conquered Malaysia when she performed at the Kuala Lumpur Lake Garden Festival last Aug. 23 at Padang Merbok in the capital city. She was the only Filipino to sing at the festival alongside other Malaysian, Indonesian, Singaporean and other acts from Southeast Asia. She also did photoshoots, radio guestings, retail and TV appearances during her tour in Kuala Lumpur in time for her latest album I Love Acoustic 8. To date, she has also traveled to Indonesia, Thailand and Singapore where she had successful concerts and promo tours.
