Something different but really good. This is a Filipino group called M.Y.M.P. - Make Your Momma Proud, headed up by Juris Fernandez on lead vocals and Chin Alcantara on guitar - and other unknown, unnamed members of their backup group. I was introduced to them about a year ago from a friend of Nick’s. Juris has such a pure voice, and a smile that will melt the coldest heart. She’s just that cute (well I think so).

The video below is a live acoustic performance of a song, Tell Me Where It Hurts. Not sure if this is an original or a cover, but they do a phenominal job with the song - despite the fact the soundboard guys should be shot for drowning her vocals out with the accompanying instruments.

Give it a listen to, and let me know what you think of M.Y.M.P.

Visit their website, or MySpace page for more.
