BAGWIS is a collective of filipino cultural workers, activists, and musicians who began writing and performing original music in 1998 as a contribution to the first annual Kultural Night of Resistance celebrating the centennial year of Philippine Independance. Since then, Bagwis has composed several dozen pro-people songs and participates in community building for our youth, women, artists and migrante workers. BAGWIS music believes in THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE, in seeking genuine freedom and democracy in the Philippines and in upholding human rights. In creating & performing this kind of music, BAGWIS hopes that it is contributing its humble share and effort in the overall struggle for justice and social change.
Pro-People Folk Rock Tumatayong tinig ng mga Pinoy. Nanatiling matatag at may lakas na ipaglaban ang naaapi at ibunyag ang katotohanan laban sa mga mapanglinlang.
Ang musika at diwa ng Bagwis ay tungkol sa buhay ng bawat migranteng Pinoy, kabuhayan ng manggagawa, ang culltura at tradisyon ng Pilipino, karanasan, katapangan natin.
ANG LAKAS AY NASA MASA!
ISANG BAGSAK!
Uphold and Defend Genuine Freedom & Democracy in The Philippines, Human Rights!
