PINOY PRIDE: TheSpeaks



A young, talented, and charismatic five-piece band from the Washington, DC area are dominating the mid-atlantic area music scene and are completely redefining the global image of rock music today.

TheSpeaks’ amazing live performances and infectious sound have created a loyal and dedicated following within the local, national, and international music scene – with fans all across the world, the numbers are growing fast in the tens of thousands. Over the past 6 years, they have outlasted numerous growing pains to hone their craft and establish their current line-up. This knack for hard work has paid off for the band – their self-produced and self-financed debut CD “Old Man” in 1997 sold 5,000+ copies via gigs/colleges/internet. Their next cd release (November 2003) “Life’s A Joke” recorded at world-renowned Cue Studios, one of the area’s premier recording venues, has had great success by quadrupling their sales. In January 2005, thespeaks signed an international distribution, production and publishing deal with Warner Music (Asia). Their hit single, “Life’s A Joke” has been on the top 30 countdown for over 5 months! Their next single release, “High” will be aired in April 2005 and the music video, directed by MTV-nominated music video director, Cullin Tobin, will also be released on MTV Asia, MYX (Asia), Channel V (Asia) and TFC (USA).
