Muntinlupa City with the 2025 Red Horse Beer Pambansang Muziklaban Grand Finals. Last
March 14, 2026, the best up-and-coming bands from all over the country rocked their hearts out
to be crowned the next best Filipino band.
TAMAD SI JUAN from Davao City emerged to claim their rightful seat at the throne of
Pinoy Rock. “Para kaming tinapunan ng maraming rosas,” shares drummer Marc Lois Vistal.
“Despite the struggles and the challenges, somehow, we deserve this. Lahat ng kasama naming
banda dito, they also deserve this pero blessed enough kami to win.”
Joining Vistal on stage were Reg Twostone on vocals, Kram Noiz on lead guitar, Shed Jabinez
on guitar, and Jepax Jaso on bass. “We are grateful for what we achieved tonight. Ang layo ng
pinanggalingan namin pero it was all worth it,” Jabinez expressed. The band took home a cash
prize of Php1 million along with the title of 2025 Red Horse Beer Pambansang Muziklaban Grand
Champion.
Preliminary eliminations last year narrowed down the competition to the top, cream of the rock
and roll crop representing different areas nationwide. TAMAD SI JUAN competed against VDS
from Quezon City, BAGUIO GOLD MUSIC from Baguio City, HILO from Cabuyao, Laguna, and
THEMATA from Tacloban City.
“Isang malaking pintuan ang Red Horse Beer Pambansang Muziklaban para sa mga musikero.
This is a way for us to prove ourselves as a band kasi hindi basta-basta ‘yung challenges when it
comes to the preparation from the elimination rounds up to the finals. Sana hindi magsawa ang
Red Horse sa pag facilitate ng battle of the bands na ito,” Vistal enthused.
The Pambansang Muziklaban Grand Finals also featured performances from top local bands
including Greyhoundz, Wilabaliw, Urbandub, Kjwan, Razorback, Typecast, Chocolate
Factory, Setsuna, and past Muziklaban champion Mayonnaise.
Rakistas at the venue had the opportunity to vote for their favorite finalists to win the Rakista
People’s Choice Award. BAGUIO GOLD MUSIC from Baguio City, garnered the most votes and
won the award taking home a trophy and cases of Red Horse Beer.
