A Year in the Life
It’s taken two years for the band Sandwich to get back on stage in a live setting, keeping these musicians from plying their craft. But the members of this legendary band have not languished in the shutdown. They’ve used the down time to pick up new skills, evolving as creatives, and as human beings. In this video, produced by the band itself, Raimund Marasigan, Diego Castillo, Myrene Academia, Mong Alcaraz, and Mike Dizon all show off what they’ve been up to in the last two years of the pandemic, and how they’ve managed to thrive in a world where they weren’t allowed to do what they do best.
