Draft:InnerVoices

Submission declined on 7 December 2025 by DoubleGrazing (talk).

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.

InnerVoices (Filipino Band)

InnerVoices is a Filipino pop-rock band formed in 1992. Known for their new wave-inspired sound and emotionally charged lyrics, the group rose to prominence during the vibrant Pinoy band culture of the 1990s. After a hiatus, InnerVoices reinvented themselves in the 2020s with a new vocalist and fresh material, marking a significant comeback in the Original Pilipino Music (OPM) scene.

Formation and Early Years InnerVoices was founded in 1992, led by frontman Atty. Rey Bergado. The band quickly became part of the late-night gig culture in Metro Manila, performing in bars and open grounds. Their music blended pop-rock energy with new wave influences, resonating with fans who often lined up to watch their shows and requested songs during performances.

Hiatus In the 2000s and 2010s, the band’s activity slowed down. The COVID-19 pandemic further impacted live performances, with InnerVoices and many other OPM bands struggling to maintain momentum.

Reinvention and Comeback In the 2020s, InnerVoices reinvented their sound for the streaming era. In 2025, they introduced a new lead vocalist, bringing renewed energy and a dynamic twist to their performances. The band released new songs that balanced nostalgia with contemporary relevance, appealing to both longtime fans and younger audiences. Their gigs have been described as “familiar, yet never dated.”

Musical Style InnerVoices’ music fuses new wave vibes with pop-rock flair, layered with lyrics full of emotion. Their style captures the essence of 1990s OPM band culture while seamlessly fitting into modern platforms like Spotify.

Legacy With over 34 years^[1] in the industry, InnerVoices has demonstrated resilience and passion for music. They remain a symbol of the enduring spirit of OPM, showing that bands can thrive even in a pop-dominated landscape. Their loyal fan base spans generations, from those who grew up in the 1990s to new listeners discovering them online.

Members The 2025 lineup^[2] features Patrick Marcelino on vocals, Rey Bergado on keyboards, Joseph Cruz handling keyboards and vocals, Rene Tecson on guitars, Alvin Herbon on bass, and Jojo Esparrago on drums and vocals. - Eric Borromeo
