Singer-songwriter Gari Escobar debuted his music career with the release of Baguio to Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, and all digital platforms last February 8, 2019. Hailing from well-known nutritional supplements provider 4Life, Gari is set to follow his musical dreams this 2019 with the release of Baguio – the first single from his upcoming self-titled debut album.

Gari Escobar was born in Manila and spent his childhood in different places, environment and social conditions that made him understand people’s problems at an early age, which often times has been his inspiration in writing.  However, having limited time to mingle with other children made him a subject of bullying, because of his crooked teeth, big ears and very short and thin physique.

Listening to the blues and different types of music gave him the opportunity to escape from the daily challenge of humiliation and physical harm.  He rebelled against his “aggressors” with it and found his freedom writing songs that expressed every typical persons’ woes and feelings.

Through the bitter trials and low self-esteem, he only found solace when surrounded by people he loved.  But his flexibility and profound love for people made him excel in the field of marketing receiving one award after another, including the international entrepreneurship award called “Silver Dollar award” from 4life Research in 2015 and DSAP’s Entrepreneur of the Year award and Hall of Fame award for 2017.  He was just recently conferred the Honorary Doctoral degree in Humanities by the Asian Leadership Academy and the University of Oklahoma.  This success gave him more freedom to channel his creative energy into song writing and singing, until new acquaintances and mentors encouraged him to record his songs which led to the realization of this album.

Baguio tugs at our heartstrings with its nostalgic tunes inciting memories of a once magical love affair set in the comforting cold of the City of Pines. Mixed and mastered at the studio of renowned composer Vehnee Saturno, Gari’s upcoming 12-track album is truly something to watch out for. 02/16/2019 (The Lifestyle Portal)

At pinakita niya din dito na hindi hadlang ang edad o anuman hirap ng buhay para matupad ang mga pangarap sa buhay. Ito ay mapapanood sa mga susunod na episode.

Ayon pa kay Ms. Leonora Sy, kasalukuyan na nilang ginagawa ang bagong proyekto nila kasama pa din ang mga nag-gwa-gwapuhang mga Gwapulis na isang fitsperation para sa mga taong may mga problema sa kanilang pangangatawan. Tiyak agaw pansin nanaman ang mga nag gagwapuhan nating mga gwapulis dahil alam naman natin ang mga gwapulis natin ay hindi lang sila nag bibigay serbisyo sa ating bansa, kundi nag bibigay din sila ng insperasyon para sa ating mga nais gumanda ang mga pangangatawan, at hindi lang basta gumanda ang mga pangangatawan kundi maging physically healthy din tayo. Kaya naman paka aabangan po natin talaga ang pinaka bago nilang proyekto na
