Champ, Hale No More

Last year, the alternative rock band Hale had its members go in separate ways. However, the lead vocalist Champ Lui Pio continue his career in the music scene as a solo artist. In fact, last November 19, 2010, he released his debut album as a solo artist. The album is entitled Synergy and is under the label of Polyeast Records. It is also said that Lui Pio is about to enter mainstream showbiz soon and he is currently undergoing workshops. He has signed up a contract with VIVA to handle his showbiz career other than recording.

Hmm... It really sounds interesting to see Champ acting on TV, although this kind of shift is not already new as Rico Blanco(from Rivermaya) and Kean Cipriano(from Callalily) had already done it. Well, good luck for Champ.
Anyways, here is the track list of Synergy:
1. Sparkplug
2. Hanging Habagat
3. Sari-Saring Kwento
4. Sa 'yo Lang
5. Magdamag
6. Gulong
7. Nightmares
8. Bleed
9. Emergency Room
10. Juan Tamad

What's intesting in this album is that Champ explores other genres and pair up with other artists in some of the songs. The carrier single for this album is Hanging Habagat and here is the clip:
