Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Bratalah was originally formed by Mr. Jeffrey Copiaco (vocals of Catatonic Band), under the name Checkered Carrots. By the time he (our boss) has chosen to focus more on Rock Music, as he did before he teamed up with the other two members and formed the long time rock superb Catatonic Band. Few months later the rest of the band namely, Egay and Gani have found three new members (Bobby, Edward and Bentot) for the band to continue its legacy to local alternative music. After Bentot (Bahistang Layas) found a job opportunity abroad, another new member, Deney joined the group as the new basist. Gani works on drums, Egay on rhythm, Edward on lead and Bobby on microphone. Egay and Edward are the main composers of the band while Deney makes proper arrangement in playing the songs.
Today, the band continuous to struggle due to most times of conflict in availability to attend band session. However, the band is trying hard to be back in action!
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes. Malate and Timog. A hell of true experience.
For an amateur band like us, every gigz is crazy. We easily get distracted when the sound system doesn't cooperate.
Your musical influences
The Dawn, True Faith, Beatles, Bread,
What equipment do you use?
As normal full band...Drums, Base, Rhythm, Lead and Mic...We will be glad to have an additional organ in the band...Just waiting...Ha, ha...
Anything else?
Well, we now badly miss the band session!
