The Dublin-hailing modern alt pop-rock quartet’s passionate, sincere, and powerful anthems have garnered for them a very strong following here in the Philippines.

Kodaline first appeared in tPhilippine shores as headliners of the Wanderland Music & Arts Festival in 2018 before holding a solo show the following year in 2019.

With tracks such as “High Hopes”, “All I Want” and “The One” at the front and center of their emotionally-charged and intimate soundtracks, a Kodaline show brings a special kind of energy rooted from a deep connection between the music and the listener. The aforementioned "All I Want" recently became the first Kodaline song to ever reach a billion streams on Spotify.

If you’ve checked out their impressive discography, it definitely sounds like they came from a very sincere and heartfelt place. Kodaline has a way of plucking your heartstrings with introspective wordplay and engaging musical arrangements, leaving you floored with their flair to communicate to you through their music.It is no surprise their live sets feel like a warm hug—because when it speaks to you, it feels even better when shared with others.

Their most recent album Our Roots Run Deep, is proof of that. The live acoustic release emphasizes that raw connection between the music and the audience. “We’re able to showcase the strength of our songs through this album,” frontman Steve Garrigan says. There are no loud gears, noises, and outside distractions to contend with—just the song at its core and the crowd singing it back more.

Experience it first-hand with Kodaline on September 14, 2023 at The Filinvest Tent, Alabang, Muntinlupa. Limited tickets still available at www.tickelo.com.
