Treble Island

Picking an instrument is hard enough, but using your FINGERS to PICK an instrument is even harder (guitar joke)! That's why our guest, guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Jerico Del Castillo is featured on today's episode. We get to listen to Jerico's unique upbringing, his current musical endeavors, and how he navigates his life as a college student. All the gig stories, love at first strum, and his influences will be shared. Tagging along as well is the fantastic artist/musician John Bermudes. He joins us with some old (not too old) friends Amanda and Tony. We hope you have a great listen! Peace.

From a small town in North Carolina, we host the very intelligent Miss. Amanda Bateman. She has called Guam her home for the better part of a year and in this episode, we pick her brains about musical guilty pleasures, her in-depth analysis, and her continuing journey with music. Tune into the soothing voice of Amanda Bateman!

It is known in life that we meet people who have multiple talents and this person is no exception! He is a saxophonist, singer, and local radio personality who we are blessed to call our friend. In this episode, catch a glimpse into the mind of Totally Tony!

Many things can define what is special about a specific place. You can immediately identify cultures by what they wear to the food they eat! One thing is for sure and that is you can definitely define a region by their music! Join us as we take a journey through our fiesta plate of music that is locally made!

From a small island to the big city! That's the life of Treble Island's first special guest, Erica Faye Tubera! From winning singing competitions in the island of Saipan, to studying at The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts, to performing at the world renowned 54 and Below, her resume is nothing short of inspiring. Despite all this, she remains true to her roots and shows us through perseverance and genuine passion anything is possible.

Everybody is different! From the clothes they wear, what they eat, and especially what type of music they listen to. In this episode, we throw it all the way back and reflect on how our taste in music has evolved. Through this never-ending journey, music has influenced us to be the people we are today! P.s. we got a sound effect board that made it impossible for us to not laugh every 5 minutes. Si Yu’os Ma’åse and hope you enjoy listening!

Every journey starts with a single step! On Treble Island’s series debut, we recollect our first experiences with music: early encounters, music mentors, and tough times that shape our love for music now! Listen to us stumble, feel around the room for something to hold on to (metaphorically of course), as we try to navigate our way through this jungle of a new medium. Si Yu’os Ma’åse and hope you enjoy listening!
