Ben&Ben's 'The Benjamins' bare plans for an ‘exciting’ 2025

Ben&Ben's ‘The Benjamins’ Tease an Exciting 2025 with New Music, A Grand Tour, and More!

Following their successful concert last December 14, beloved OPM band Ben&Ben is gearing up for an eventful 2025, packed with special performances, a massive tour, and ambitious new projects. Paolo and Miguel Benjamin Guico, the band’s twin lead vocalists, recently opened up about what fans can expect in the months ahead.

One of their first major appearances for the year will be on ABS-CBN’s noontime show, "It's Showtime," where the band will headline a special Valentine’s Day performance on February 14. While most couples will be spending the day in romantic settings, the Guico twins will be serenading Kapamilya viewers with their signature heartfelt melodies.

“Instead na mag-celebrate ng Valentine's kasama ang partners namin, excited kami na makasama ang madlang people sa ‘Showtime’,” Paolo shared. Fans can expect a kilig-filled musical treat as the band, known for their soul-stirring love songs, takes the stage.

Although Paolo and Miguel won’t be spending the actual Valentine’s Day with their partners, they have planned early and late celebrations. Miguel, who will be marking his second wedding anniversary with his wife, plans to celebrate in advance on February 10. Meanwhile, Paolo, who recently proposed to his fiancée, intends to go out days after February 14 to avoid the usual crowds.

A Star-Studded Festival and a Groundbreaking New Tour

Beyond Valentine's, Ben&Ben is set to share the stage with some of the biggest names in OPM. On March 15, the band will perform at the 10th anniversary of Fusion: The Philippine Music Festival, alongside artists such as Maki, Zack Tabudlo, December Avenue, and more. As part of their setlist, they will be performing “Triumph” and “Courage”, two powerful tracks from their newly released album, The Traveler Across Dimensions.

But that’s just the beginning. Starting April 2025, the band will embark on a massive tour titled "The Traveler Across Dimensions," which will take them across the Philippines and international venues. The tour is not just about live music—it’s set to be a multidimensional adventure, exploring the journey of Liwanag, the traveler, as she navigates through different dimensions of Light, Energy, and Feel, translating emotions and experiences into music.

“We're finalizing the schedule, pero ipo-post namin in the next two weeks or so,” Miguel assured, adding that fans can expect details about tour dates and locations very soon.

Ben&Ben’s Musical Evolution and a New Creative Vision

To bring their ambitious vision to life, the band will once again collaborate with director Paolo Valenciano, who has previously worked with them on past projects. This partnership promises a cinematic and immersive concert experience, one that will push the boundaries of how music is performed and experienced.

For Paolo and Miguel, this new era of Ben&Ben represents not just a shift in their music but also a reflection of their growth as artists and individuals. The twins shared how The Traveler Across Dimensions feels distinctly different from their previous albums.

“It's deliberate to evolve…it's deliberate to tell the story of kung nasaan kami ngayon. And not just that, the story therefore of the people that we sing to. Kumbaga, naniniwala kami doon sa pagka-universal ng mga life stories namin,” Paolo explained.

Their journey in music also mirrors their personal love stories. From singing about heartbreak and longing in "Kathang Isip", to embracing the depths and complexities of love in "Together with You", Ben&Ben continues to redefine how love, growth, and self-discovery are expressed through music.

“As long as nag-e-evolve ka, nag-e-evolve din yung mga kanta,” Miguel added, emphasizing their commitment to crafting songs that resonate with people at different stages of their lives.

But Ben&Ben’s vision doesn’t stop at just music. The band revealed a bigger dream—they hope to turn their new album into a film or series, allowing the story of Liwanag’s journey across dimensions to be showcased in a visual and cinematic format. They believe that this narrative is one that would deeply connect with dreamers, travelers, and anyone searching for meaning in life.

With a new album, an ambitious tour, and a creative vision that extends beyond music, 2025 is shaping up to be one of Ben&Ben’s biggest years yet. Fans can expect more heartfelt songs, breathtaking performances, and a musical journey like never before.
