A fixture in all major music events, from holiday gigs, to events targeting different groups of music fans, from Metro Manila to the key cities all over the country, Up Dharma Down has also played for audiences in the region, and has participated in high-profile events like The Mosaic Music Festival in Singapore. The band’s reach and influence can be felt not just onground but also in social media, with legions of fans following them.
