I am impressed with the vocalist in how he seems to match Mark’s energy with the smooth almost bluesy delivery without sounding forced or overly dramatic. I have tried to listen to many covers of this song and rarely made it past the 15 second mark. I loved the vocals and band was spot on. I enjoyed listening to the entire song, very refreshing.

[@eloisapantazis6232]

The Renaissance Brothers

[@marlonibao]

I didn’t really mean to change their name: REO Bros of Tacloban is a great name because it stands for their family and their humble beginning - which is both nostalgic and relatable. What I am suggesting is to refer to them as a renaissance band instead just merely a cover band. Renaissance can also mean someone who can do many things very well like a jack of all trade. The Philippines’ national hero is sometimes called by some historians as the renaissance man of Asia. I think the reference is respectful to the brothers and appropriately describes what they have been able to do with many of the 60s to 80s classics.
