Smoking Kangaroos
A local OPM punk band in Cagayan de Oro has just launched their new hit single entitled Wasted Time, a song which imparts the importance of time in everyone’s lives. As an independent local band, they hit the rock stage as they played revivals from the 80’s and cover songs from the Good Charlotte and the Mayonnaise.
Started in 2003, Smoking Kangaroos is composed of 5 happy-go-lucky yet talented musicians; Jam Ignilan on drums, Lyle Serrano on lead guitars, Ferdinand Tan on rhythm and back-up vocals, Keith on bass, and Lei Vallecer on lead vocals. The group was formed from an unexpected jamming and drinking session during their collegiate days. And for the past couple of years, they have already performed in a lot of gigs and have even garnered the “Band of the Year Award” from an inter-city battle of the bands competition in the City of Golden Friendship. Right now the group is still making up for lost times in a casual drinking and jamming session together with their closest friends and brother band mates.
