The Dawn
Über The Dawn
The Dawn were the standard-bearers of Filipino new wave, a Manila band who brought jangly, anthemic rock to the country in the 1980s. Their song Enveloped Ideas became a defining track of the era, and Salamat endures as a heartfelt classic. Through decades of lineup changes they remained one of the most respected acts in Pinoy rock, bridging the pioneer generation and the 1990s alternative wave.
