Ace Banzuelo, the Filipino singer, songwriter, and musician, emerged as a vibrant force in the music industry with his soul-stirring melodies and versatile compositions. Hailing from Laguna, Banzuelo’s journey into music began at the tender age of four, fueled by an innate passion that found expression through his captivating voice. Although not born into a musical family, his early influences were steeped in hip-hop rhythms, which gradually evolved as he delved deeper into the rich tapestry of musical genres.
Banzuelo’s breakout moment arrived with his chart-topping single “Muli,” a poignant masterpiece that resonated deeply with audiences, propelling him to mainstream acclaim. The track soared to the upper echelons of the Billboard Philippines Songs chart, securing its place as the seventh highest-charting song during its remarkable 22-week run. Its monumental success was further underscored by its dominance on streaming platforms, where it clinched the title of the most-streamed OPM song and ascended to the upper tiers of Spotify’s Philippines Top 200 and the Viral 50 Philippines chart.
Under the auspices of Sony Music Philippines, Banzuelo continues to captivate audiences with his distinctive blend of indie rock, EDM, pop, synth-pop, and city pop. Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of musical luminaries including Linkin Park, The 1975, Phoenix, Daft Punk, Skrillex, Zedd, and Avicii, he weaves together a tapestry of sound that transcends boundaries and resonates across cultures. In homage to his childhood idol, Michael Jackson, Banzuelo infuses his performances with electrifying dance moves, imbuing his artistry with an infectious energy that leaves an indelible impression on all who encounter it.
