Rehab Underground-Rehabilitating Cagayan de Oro's Music Scene (updated)

Cagayan de Oro's music scene have been quiet for quite sometime. With former gig spots closing down for renovations and the indie production groups still looking for a new home, CDO indie bands are left with no venue to strut their stuffs. The bands had to look for gigs by themselves or lay down their musical instruments for awhile.

Enter Micbox Productions with the help of Cagayan de Oro's most respected indie music figure, Iking Raneses, vocalist and main man of the band Tabularaza. Soundbox Productions is taking the cudgels to round up 10 of Cagayan de Oro's best indie bands for a one night free concert at the Cagayan de Oro Capitol Grounds. Soundbox Productions is not your ordinary indie production group. It's a producton group that aims to uplift Cagayan de Oro's indie music standards and prepare the best indie bands in Cagayan de Oro to experience professional class concert production standards. This is a very ambitious project to unite only the best Indie musicians that Cagayan de Oro has to offer. And it may all start in this event. The production group also aims to start selling the event not because of the freebies that the audience could get, but mostly because of the music. The selling point is the music. Below are the listing of the bands performing and their respective timeslots and websites (if any).
