Artist description JoJo de Veyra (otherwise known as warphoto) is a Filipino indie poet and fictionist who has a collection of unreleased songs stored in two cassette tapes. His occasional sparring partner, bassist/effects man Bernie Asis, himself has a rich collection of copyrighted songs. One of Manila's hundreds of untapped rock molds, Warphoto blends melodic alternative rock with edgy cheap guitars backed by a tight rhythm echo tool and clever lyrics. His uncelebrated, unreleased first album and energetic dead no-show make this onesome a sort of old band-a-be to watch.

Music Style Techno Folk? Maybe. Alternative rock, indie rock, folk, definitely.

Musical Influences Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Neil Young, early James Taylor, David Bowie, Talking Heads, Evan Dando, Elliot Smith, Uncle Tupelo, Joan Baez, Suzanne Vega, Tracey Chapman, Juliana Hatfield, Gary Granada, Heber Bartolome, Mike Hanopol, Yano
