THE GENTLE JAZZ OF OLIVIA

Ivory Music & Video is proud to announce that it has just released the newest addition to its growing roster of artists and performers. Presenting Olivia in her debut album entitled “Gentle Jazz”. Set to reintroduce Manila to the soothing sounds of Jazz, Olivia, who at 19 years of age is already a seasoned performer of the most luxurious hotels around is ripe and ready for a bigger stage to showcase her singing prowess.

Active ImagePractically a “Best-Of-Pop-Jazz” kind of an album, “Gentle Jazz” is a 15 track album that includes the songs Oh Lori, All Behind Us Now, The Real Thing, Sweet Baby, The Way You Look Tonight, Sway, Loving You, My Cherie Amour, Just The Two Of Us, Say You Love Me and Love Is Answer. Olivia also roots herself in OPM with a reworking of the songs You and Laging Kapiling and a sample of her songwriting with Someday We Will Find Love.

Olivia started her career at the age of fifteen, then as fledgling band vocalist before her interest in Jazz deepened and switched as a soloist in the hotel lounge scene. She was the first ever Filipino awardee at the Astana Song Festival in Kazakhstan where she took home the award for best performance. She was also the youngest interpreter at a Metropop competition when she was just sixteen. Coming from a deeply musical family, the singer is daughter to Brenda Ponce Enrile Tirona, the other half of the Tirona Sisters that reigned supreme in the lounge scene of the 70’s. Her grandfather is renowned Filipino baritone, orchestra conductor Alberto Tirona, and granddaughter to singing celebrity Armida Siguion-Reyna and politician Juan Ponce Enrile.

Gentle Jazz covers the pop and jazz spectrum with songs such as Oh Lori , All Behind Us Now and The Real Thing. It also includes The Way You Look and Sway that just shows Olivia can go from pop and jazz, to standards and beyond. Olivia also samples some classic sounding jazz with a reworking of Madonna’s True Blue.

Olivia is also friendly. As i was able to chitchat with her in Multiply kahit sandali lang, she sees time to reply naman with her fans (eeek! And i`m one of them. :-) How i wish i could also she her in person. And also, sana makakita nko`g album niya ug ni Richard para makapalit na daun ko. hehe! That`s all folks. ^^

Muddy Haha!

I think you bet, the thing i`m gonna tell you now is funny. Well, you`re right :) haha! It was really funny, for me. --.

Yesterday (April 26, 2008) was Kuya Shudz`s birthday. I was in school @ around 2pm since I substituted our PRES (Irish) of SSC`s council meeting. She wasn`t able to go because she wasn`t permitted by his father to attend. After the meeting, it was Kuya Shudz`s celebration & he bought a cake for all of us & we ate inside the SSC office. The cake was YUMYUM :) really! Anyway, after that, I really wanted to go home BUT this KJ rain fell & like it`s super hard. Looks like it won`t stop. I stayed a bit, thinking that the rain would stop. But, DARN, it didn`t! I then decided to call my Tito Boboy to fetch me @ SC since according to someone I SHOUDN`T sulong in the rain. So, then, i called Tito using Ceasar`s phone & everything was fixed. I will go home with my Tito. I went back to where I sat and I was with Ceasar :) We talked outside about you know, stuffs like .. that! xD eek! That`s it. Until such time na, it`s like getting late & i CAN`T wait for Tito anymore. So, i called him & asked if where is he, he said he`s coming & GOSH, that would surely be, uh, somewhere super away in MPSC. Haha! So, i told him that i`ll go home nalang, & i`ll try to lusong-lusong in the rain. Since, my Kuya`s & Ate`s are going home na din. I went home with them & yikes!! After the first half of the walk way in our school, it was filled with water, students used to walk in the street`s hamp if it`s raining, so we decided to took that way. & before i stepped to the hump or hamp (whatever! ^^), i felt like, something`s really gonna happen. I stepped on the mountain of MUDS (imagine?! haha!), it was really soft. Super! So, as i jumped towards the hamp or hump, eeeeeeeeeeeeek, naligayas ko! Good thing the right part of my pants was just filled with mud, not the whole part (thank GOD!). I was like laughing as I reach the other half of the walk way. My Kuya`s was worried about me (Kuya Shudz, Kuya Martin, & Kuya Geev) and so as my Ate`s (Ate Pines & Ate Dianah). I wasn`t ashamed on what had happened, i was, rather, having fun! haha! It was a lesson. :) So, as I reached home, I immediately went to the bathroom & washed myself. Haha! Whatta day that was xD

Special Thanks To:

~* Kuya Geev -- for the Jacket which covered the mud in my butt :) haha!
~* Kuya Shudz -- for taking care of me; for the cake; and for the FREE fare
~* Kuya Martin, Ate Pines, Ate Dianah -- for the support :) haha! (murag naunsa gyud ko bah. haha!)

-- that`s all folks, bbye :)) Goodnight!
