Hook, Line & Sinker is a project band composed of young musicians from South of
Metro Manila, Philippines. Enhanced community quarantine conditions in May 2020 drove its
members, who belong to different bands, to jam and record songs online, and pursue a
common passion for unique yet relatable music. Its members are AJ Soliman (Out of
Order), Edsel De Guzman (Drive of Daydreams), Nathan Abella (Pawikan) and David
Montalban.
In June 2020, Hook, Line & Sinker’s first original single titled You Don’t Know was
released on Facebook and got 16k views. Later, in August, the song made it to radio
station Jam 88.3’s New Music Monday top ten list. The band also dropped another
original song dubbed, Nothing to Do With You which was featured on a podcast called
Toast or Roast, a show created by Former NU DJs Francis Brew and Kim. The third
original song 6AM was released in February 2021. It is also their first song to have a
music video and was released on Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram.
Heavily influenced by the Beatles, Oasis and Drake Bell, the band strives to hone their
craft, find their voice, sing of joys and heartaches, including stories of “falling hook, line
and sinker.” They continue to create music and cover local bands like the Eraserheads
to explore and free their minds. The band is now working on their debut album and
hopes to contribute to the growth of OPM.
