MANILA -- Filipino pop-rock band The Juans marked their 10th year in the music scene with "Tawid," a brand new album that opens a universe to every feeling.
Composed of Carl Guevarra, Chael Adriano, Japs Mendoza and RJ Cruz, the band's newest album was released last September 12. On the same day, the band launched its nationwide album tour at Glorietta, Makati.
It invites listeners to cross from confusion to clarity, from hoping to healing, and from the weight of pain to something lighter.
“'Tawid' is a companion for anyone at the crossroads. It’s not about reaching the finish line, but about embracing the messy middle — the process of still crossing, still choosing, still feeling,” Guevarra, The Juans’ leader said via a press release.

The Juans kicked off their anniversary events with "TAWID LIVE: The Album Showcase" held at Skydome last August 29.
From October to December, the band will continue to bring "Tawid" closer to Juanistas nationwide with mall shows, live gigs and fan engagements.
“We’ve always believed that there’s a The Juans song for every season you go through,” Guevarra said.
“'Tawid' is proof of that. Wherever you are in your journey, we hope this album feels like a friend walking with you,” he added.
The Juans is known for the mega-hits “Hindi Tayo Pwede” and “Istorya.”
