Filipino pop/rock band Sponge Cola has been consistent in powering, romancing, and inspiring their native Philippines with a stellar collection of original and certified hit songs culled from an impressive catalogue of award-winning and critically acclaimed full-length albums.

From what started out as a high school class project, the group has grown into one of the Philippines' premier bands, entertaining audiences both locally and internationally, and becoming staples in the country's entertainment industry.

Some of the band's hits include: Gemini, Di na Mababawi, Jeepney, Tuliro, Bitiw, Kay Tagal Kitang Hinintay, Puso, Makapiling Ka, Iyong-iyong-iyo, Coda, among many others.

2020 marked the band's homecoming to Sony Music Entertainment, releasing Lumipas ang Tag-Araw in July and Siguro Nga - inspired by the popular KDrama Start-Up - in December. And as 2021 drawing to a close, the band keeps their sound alive.
