Moira Dela Torre – Patawad

I understand the terrible storm we are faced with right now and it’s not to be taken lightly. But I also understand that in hardships, music is always a present friend. In times of trouble, music brings comfort, hope and peace. So we’ve decided to push through with it, with the hopes that these songs, which took us two years to finish, would bring joy and comfort.

The whole album will be available on YouTube, Spotify & Apple Music starting March 27 at midnight♥️ With the Trilogy’s remaining Music Videos coming on March 25 for the Paalam Music Video feat. @benandbenmusic and March 26 for the Patawad Music Video and then the full album drop on March 27 + (maybe) a digital album launch 🙂 . Also an FB-Live concert for the benefit of those affected by COVID-19 on March 28.

May these stories help calm anxiety like it did when I wrote it and remind you that there is still hope, that you are not alone and that you are stronger and braver than you think. My love & prayers are with you always❄️

– Moira Dela Torre
