IT has been years since they performed jointly around these parts and, no doubt, many fans are excited with Pops Fernandez making the announcement she will be teaming up with Martin Nievera again and for a very special show.
This is for “The Royal Affair: 2020 New Year’s Eve Countdown” happening at The Tent at Solaire, Dec. 31.
“The performance is going to be special because we’ve never done a New Year’s Eve show together so, I’m really excited about it,” said Pops in an interview.
They just completed a sold-out tour in the United States, and Pops maintained they are on a roll.
She shared, “The shows abroad were great, and our rapport was superb so, I think it will continue as we perform at The Tent.”
“I never thought I would miss performing with Martin but I did and it shows. There’s just something about us performing together that brings out the best in me, I guess.”
She is mum as to their repertoire but hinted it will be filled with classics.
“Obviously because we grew up in the ‘80s so, a lot of the songs will come from the era,” she said. “We will also perform fan favourites and a bunch of new songs that we haven’t performed together yet.”
“The Royal Affair” is expected to draw in a crowd composed of both local and international guests eager to welcome the New Year with sensational artistry.
Also performing for the evening are Fourtissimo and Red Picasso.
Then there’s Arman Ferrer, Floyd Tena, and Gian Magdangal, Shiela Valderrama-Martinez, Carla Laforteza, and Yanah Laurel.
Adding glamor to the bash, Solaire’s Waterside will rewind the decades decked in art deco gold and platinum with hits from the roaring 20s to the blazing 2000s all the way to the hip tunes of the present starting at 7 p.m.
Tickets available at Ticket World. (Neil Ramos)
