- 2:37afternoon. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the one and only Amazing the Dynamic
- 2:43Duo. Yes I am talking about inter Well, yeah, we're so excited
- 2:54to have you guys here. But before we have you guys talk, I
- 2:58want to go into just a quick intro. You guys are two thirds of
- 3:01the Amazing Trio are in the top R and B group that I grew up
- 3:07listening to. Okay, I mean we're in the same you know, age
- 3:10range. But you know, we were really lucky to have seen a lot
- 3:15of the philm talent you know, come up together. Right. Yeah,
- 3:21and you guys were one of the first to get on the radio. You
- 3:24guys had a top one hundred Billboard we did, right. It's an amazing
- 3:31moment, an amazing experience. If we could talk more about that for nine
- 3:34weeks, right, So tell me how what song? I know what it
- 3:38is, but you guys tell me the story and how your career you know
- 3:40is was and how it started up until now let's get into storytime. Storytime.
- 3:47Yeah, well, the song was called the song is called I don't
- 3:51want to Go On. That's the song that we're most known for. And
- 3:54really it all happened in like my apartment, in my room when we were
- 4:00all just vibing, me, Cyrus and James were just messing around on the
- 4:03keyboards and just vocalizing, and just from everyday practice, we kind of came
- 4:10up with that song in our room. And Eric's always been a little bit
- 4:13more talented than us when it comes to the singing singer songwriter thing, you
- 4:17know, because Eric was the lead in doing that, and so he was
- 4:23a big part in writing I Don't want to go On. And it's amazing
- 4:26that that song ended up becoming a Billboard hit. But the way that it
- 4:30happened was, you know, the record did get released, and I remember
- 4:34when it first came out, it sold out and it was like top three
- 4:39I think, I like a Bay Area chart, right, And that was
- 4:42just the first indicator like what the heck is this happening? And then next
- 4:46thing, you know, like you know, back in those days, there
- 4:48was Sam Goodies and the record warehouse to touch on that. It was top
- 4:57three, but what we from what I remember, it could have been a
- 5:00lot higher. They just ran out of product. Out of all the stores,
- 5:02which is crazy when you think about it, because now no one runs
- 5:05out to the stores to buy CDs anyway, right, Oh, I know
- 5:09it's all tangible now, it's like just pressing button, right, so that
- 5:15happens. Yeah, and then but he's more the modest yeah kind of yeah,
- 5:23yeah, definitely more in the loud mouth. I mean, you know,
- 5:26you know at you can own it, that's all right. Well,
- 5:29really I became the writer because you know, if you notice, a lot
- 5:32of our music is heartbreak and I got a lot of that, so and
- 5:36that really comes through in the music when you when you listen to it,
- 5:41absolutely, so, you know, growing up obviously we listened to like the
- 5:44svs, you know, instincts too, like later on in life. But
- 5:50with you guys coming up, who were your biggest influences? I know,
- 5:54mean condition is up there, Condition, I mean the almost obvious boys to
- 5:59men. You know, with us being a trio, we were harmonies were
- 6:01a big deal, yes, and they were they were very very you know,
- 6:05that was definitely one group we looked up to. New addition edition Babyface,
- 6:11he's the goat. Oh yeah, you know, I when whenever I
- 6:13tried to write music back then. I was, you know, I was
- 6:15thinking about baby Face and mind and and and the way he expresses himself through
- 6:20his music, and I would I would try to do the same. But
- 6:24Stevie Wonders another influence in Michael Jackson believe it or not. Yes, and
- 6:30you know you can't forget about you know, even in Houston, even though
- 6:32she's a But it was just all the music that we grew up with at
- 6:35that era. I mean there was a lot of great singers the fields,
- 6:39that's right, Yeah, exactly exactly. So tell us who you guys have
- 6:45had the privilege to share the stage with or open up for, because I
- 6:47know you guys have you know, you guys have some big names under Yeah,
- 6:51I mean this is the fun part. We love talking about this because
- 6:54you know there's so many like pinched myself moments? Is this happening kind of
- 6:58thing? You know, But you know, one of the biggest obviously it
- 7:00was in Sync and so wow, you know, and Sync was one Destiny
- 7:05Child, which was when that was when there was four of them at the
- 7:10time, so that was cool, I mean, going right, I mean
- 7:17we had genuine basically if you listen to nineties R and B. We basically
- 7:24pretty much performed with a lot of those a lot of ninety nineties R and
- 7:27B artists that you listened to now, you know what I mean, you
- 7:30listened to those nineties R and B playlists. When we go through them,
- 7:32we're just mobbing in the car, like, hey man, you remember when
- 7:34we performed with these guys, like wow, you know. So it's it's
- 7:38it's a blessing and too. Like recently we did a show with rough Ends,
- 7:42and yeah, we love rough Ends and it was great to Yeah,
- 7:46we connected real well. We exchanged numbers and he was we had a heart
- 7:50to heart conversations and it's it's crazy because we all come from that same era.
- 7:56We're still doing the same thing and it's just awesome that we get to
- 7:59reach connect with all these artists that some you know, some that we haven't
- 8:01met yet, you know, sure, I mean, let's tell them a
- 8:05fun story too. I Mean, there's other artists we've grown up with,
- 8:07like Tony Braxton right and right and growing up or be living in l A
- 8:13you have, you know, there's a lot of opportunities to run into artists
- 8:16and things like that. But you know, Eric's also a DJ on the
- 8:18side, you know. You know, in Vegas, I do, I
- 8:24Do, I do. I DJ at the Sahara Casino at the Cashmore Lounge,
- 8:28So yeah, you can catch me there. It's true. But my
- 8:31career did start in l A. And one of my biggest opportunities intunities out
- 8:37there was when I DJed thanks a private Thanksgiving party for the Tony Braxton's family.
- 8:45So basically I got to go every single I'm just saying, I'm just
- 8:48saying, well, the cool thing was not only was there to be a
- 8:54DJ, but they wanted a karaoke party because they're the Braxton sisters always,
- 8:58so like I was like, what this is you're gonna get We're definitely going,
- 9:03you know, I mean, you know, I'll be one of those
- 9:05that will be like quiet pushing in the back, that will blow it up
- 9:07and carry out, you know, Like little did they know their DJs actually
- 9:11can sing, you know, but yeah, we were just DJs in their
- 9:15eyes when like so I'm here sending up the equipment and I'm like, hey,
- 9:18James, let's let's do sound check real quicks because they're not They're not
- 9:20gonna know that, they don't know anything. So so check this. So
- 9:26I put on Unbreak my Heart of All Things right because testing. So James
- 9:30starts singing it. Tony Braxton comes out. I see her in the corner.
- 9:33She comes out with her camera and she starts recording my brother. That's
- 9:37awesome, Like I can say that that's better than being backstage at any concert
- 9:43or at meet and greet. I was in their home, like in their
- 9:46most intimate moment. It wasn't graded moment. Yeah sure, Tony Braxton is
- 9:52just yeah, she's go tests, you know, like she's the queen.
- 9:56And I feel like if you are in someone's home and you're providing that you
- 10:00know, service and that experience, and then you get to show up as
- 10:03your artist self, like awesome, that's such a great experience. Thanks for
- 10:07sharing that story. So what else is up for you guys? I know
- 10:18you guys just performed at the Garden Amp and Cali. You guys were in
- 10:22Daily City just recently for the was that Phil Daily City? So you guys
- 10:28fly back and forth. Let's talk about Cyrus. He is your third member.
- 10:33I know he's still in the Bay Area. How do you guys you
- 10:37know, coordinate that? Are you guys usually two out of three three three
- 10:39thirds, Like, I'm very right. I mean, so you know we're
- 10:45still a group. You know, we're still the trio, but you know,
- 10:48it is hard because he's in San francisc adult and we're in Vegas and
- 10:52yeah, we're all adulting now, so you know, when he can be
- 10:56there, he'll definitely be part of the show. So sometimes you'll get two
- 10:58of us, sometimes you get three. But no matter what sure you go
- 11:01to, it's going to be a good special guests with us. So that's
- 11:07true. So how did you guys form your trio or how did you form
- 11:13your group? Originally? Well, just again, it's just we were just
- 11:18high school kids having fun. You know, we're trying to mimic the groups
- 11:24that we saw on TV. So again, it just started out just hanging
- 11:28out at my house or at our house. And in fact, at first,
- 11:33my brother was trying to get in the group, and I was just
- 11:35ignoring him. I didn't know he could really see it of friends, like
- 11:41why trying to hang out? Right, So that's how I saw it at
- 11:45first. And then yeah, so you know, so eventually obviously, you
- 11:54know, my brother made it in the group. We held tryouts because we
- 11:58thought we were cool holding tryouts and stuff like that. At one point we
- 12:01had five members, then we went to four members, and then we kept
- 12:05changing the fourth member and yeah, and then ultimately just ended up with with
- 12:11us three because we had like the best chemistry together and we figured, uh,
- 12:16you know, this is a this is a good bond, this is
- 12:18a good group. Let's just keep it like this. So did you guys
- 12:20already have training in like music theory or you know, how did you guys
- 12:24know how to? I mean, we all played piano as a young as
- 12:28younger kids, you know, especially Filipino culture, Filipino fan It's like everyone
- 12:33took piano lessons. So maybe that's where it started. Maybe there's some genetics
- 12:39to you know, I think our family can sing, but you know,
- 12:45Filipinos were either we're either dancers, were singers or DJs or nurses. They
- 12:52used to all our wonderful medical but it would have happened without them. So
- 12:56I'm just saying, you know, I'm just saying we couldn't. We couldn't.
- 13:00There's a stereotype for a reason, because we're good at it. Yes,
- 13:03they are very good, very good. No shade yeah, sha sha
- 13:09shade it is your all diamonds. We're just trying to, you know,
- 13:13emulate the the divo diva vibes, you know, nineties. We love that,
- 13:18you know what I'm saying. So we have Mahallow Hollow coming up October
- 13:22twenty eighth at Downtown Container Park. We have Interlude as one of our main
- 13:26acts. I'm so excited because one all three of them are going to be
- 13:31there, Cyrus, Eric and Jays and you know what, what better way

- 19:03you can we can celebrate phil Heritage Month, but also what is going on
- 19:08with right now and just bringing that, but that vibe, that ninety nineties
- 19:12vibe, there's nothing like it. I got a plug though, y'all still
- 19:15have good hair, you got the no great I mean, I don't.
- 19:22I don't see. Back in the day, we got the high fade,
- 19:25the pompadour, the street. You know, the baby they got the baby
- 19:29faces. You know what I mean? Are you little like Tommy My gosh,
- 19:33Jackie too sweet? True? No filters either, filters on filter.
- 19:41Okay, so let's go back to the nineties, Like what's your favorite like
- 19:44memory or maybe moment any nineties. I know Jada Pinkett Smith is hot right
- 19:49now that the hole Will Smith. I don't even know. I just caught
- 19:52on yesterday. I know what happened. I saw a bunch of memes.
- 19:55I'm like, what is what was going on? But you know, tell
- 19:57me a little bit about maybe a good concert you guys, like, like
- 20:02an interlude, moment, inter maybe a show that she watch nineties anything,
- 20:07nineties anything? Maybe the style, what was the style that you guys remember
- 20:11that that stuck with you guys? Cross colors? Maybe well you still rock
- 20:15the vest I think that was a nineties everybody wore us Jo vibes. Yeah,
- 20:23the leather or leather vests. Everybody played that song. But I don't
- 20:33know too many crazy moments, And I know there there was a when I
- 20:36think of interlude moments. There was a time when we're in Hawaii, we
- 20:41did a show. It was in downtown for the Hello Yeah, so we
- 20:48headlined that event. Man, they treated us so good out there, Like
- 20:52we're only five that traveled, but they got us like three suits. It's
- 20:56like, man, they really rolled out the red carpet for us. But
- 21:00as they should. You know, I didn't expect it. I really didn't
- 21:03expect it. So so we got there. We did all our promotion things
- 21:06on the radio. But the day of the show, you know, we
- 21:11did our sound check, we walked around, then we performed. But after
- 21:15we performed is when it really shocked us because we're like, wow, these
- 21:18are real fans out here. So we couldn't even leave the stage. We
- 21:22had to sneak out from the back. We ran since it was it was
- 21:26in the city, so we ran to a Cellular one store or something like
- 21:30that time, right, and then so like we were kind of trapped in
- 21:33there and there's like girls banging on the guy like this is a true So
- 21:41these girls they're just banging, right. So so our manager goes, Okay,
- 21:45look I'm gonna go out there trying to try to calm them down and
- 21:48go out and meet them. I was like, cool, that'd be fun.
- 21:51So he gets out there, he pulls out, you know, some
- 21:52photos to pass out so we can sign them, and they just like they
- 21:59were like pan on him right. Like he comes back in and just imagine
- 22:02like someone being on the shovels like springs exactly. So he had that look
- 22:10and he was like, no, no, boys, you can't go out
- 22:11there. So we literally had to sprint out the back and like go back
- 22:18to our hotel and we didn't get to like meet those fans. But I
- 22:21always remember that moment because Hawaii always showed us. Hawaii showed us. That's
- 22:29that's why see that you got to wear them. That's why I think you
- 22:33guys have the shades on because you got to protect your eyes, you know,
- 22:36because the fans the protect you gotta come back. We got to keep
- 22:41that for October twenty eight. All right, everybody coming, wear your shade
- 22:47please, no shade, yeah, no shade for protecting. We're probably gonna
- 22:49wear them on stage. So yeah, as you should as you should know.
- 22:55We we're just happy to hear these stories. I know, you know
- 23:00you are coming back into the scene and the music scene. You guys are
- 23:03going to be producing new music, and I'm excited to see where this journey
- 23:07goes because it's a whole new chapter in your your career, your music career.
- 23:11We all evolved, so you know what you had back in the day
- 23:15is not going to be the same. Obviously, interesting people on their toes
- 23:23and we're always looking to collapse, so you know, sure always, So
- 23:27it sounds like you're going to help us make some connections. So collaboration,
- 23:33you know, is full of talent. I mean, we all originally come
- 23:36from California. We want to come here respectfully and make sure that we you
- 23:40know, kind of integrate our talents and our purpose in the community. So
- 23:44if you guys are vibing with Interlude, you guys want to you know,
- 23:48produce some reggae, some Island vibes. Hit them up, Interlude hostial,

- 24:03on October twenty eighth, from twelve to eight. Yes, on October twenty
- 24:07eighth, from twelve pm to eight pm. I am looking forward, just
- 24:10definitely looking forward to celebrating phil Am Heritage Month, to see a lot of
- 24:15us come and more of like a beautiful family gathering where we can listen to
- 24:19some amazing artists. I mean, there's gonna be amazing vendors there as well
- 24:23as well as some food trucks, so you're gonna have good food, good
- 24:26entertainment, I mean, just good vibes all together. Downtown Container Park provides
- 24:32that whole atmosphere and it's just going to be a great time. What a
- 24:36wonderful platform, what a wonderful way. So thank you Tony for having mahalo
- 24:40hello, because this is the third year and the best is yet to come.
- 24:44The bus is yet to come. And we have interlude blessing our stageh
- 24:47my goodness. You know, we are lucky to be able to have Filipino
- 24:52Americans really represent us here. Yes, not only in Las Vegas. I've
- 24:57had the opportunity to you know, see them in Calli and other places,
- 25:03but to be in the same room and to share stories and to really see
- 25:07us evolve as people, and you know a lot of us are artists naturally,
- 25:11but to step out of your comfort zone and really take on the artistry
- 25:15and just you know, be uncomfortable, especially in our in our culture,
- 25:19it's like, oh, you know, you have to go into the medical
- 25:22frailty or you have to do something conventional and very safe. So when you
- 25:26step out into your artistry and you express that and you're able to show the
- 25:30community like, hey, no, you can do both. Yeah, I
- 25:33mean that's real talk. And thank you for acknowledging that. I mean,
- 25:37we appreciate it. I feel like, you know, there was a little
- 25:38bit of that even in our families growing up, right. I mean it
- 25:41only comes from love, right, But you know, thank god it worked
- 25:45out where we could do both. And you know, we have these memories
- 25:48and these connections with everyone that does listen to our music, right, you
- 25:52know, and that's kind of why we still do it. You know.
- 25:55I was sharing that story earlier, Like when we go to these shows,
- 25:59a lot of people like to pour out to us and say, did you
- 26:03know what your song did for me? Or I was going through this during
- 26:07So those are the thing the memories I carry with me, to be quite
- 26:08honest with you, and that's amazing because sometimes you forget and think that you
- 26:15have the impact on people. It's pretty awesome when someone tells you that's how
- 26:18you impacted me. Yes, absolutely, couldn't have said it any better,
- 26:22that's right. I know, there's like just Mike drop right there. You
- 26:27have to add to it, you know, as the big bro, like
- 26:30you see your relationship with one another and how you guys have evolved as artists,
- 26:36Like how do you feel that you actually let him in going, You're
- 26:41welcome, You're there's no there's no interlude without James and vice versus. It
- 26:49was the perfect match, you know, since birth. I'll say it like
- 26:53that, there you go, and that's why we still here and that's why
- 26:56we're still doing that's right. But you know, brothers and singing together,
- 27:00I think it's pretty cool because I think musically, you know, it's it's
- 27:04cool how we work together, like in a studio and even in a group
- 27:07like I don't know if you guys can get along with your siblings that long
- 27:11all the time, right share, you know, going on the road with
- 27:14each other. So I think we're pretty blessed to like have that journey together
- 27:18and still be you know together. Yeah, and winning together, still doing
- 27:25well. I'm sure you guys, like you know, give each other a
- 27:27hard time here and there, but yeah, yeah, like that goes without
- 27:34saying. But what I'm saying throughout all that, we still you know,
- 27:38but you know, music does keep us together, as you know, I
- 27:42love that, and you know, you keep the culture going, you guys
- 27:45keep the respect and that fortitude of creating together and just you know, being
- 27:52an example to our community. How many years now in the business plus right,
- 27:57ninety nine and yeah, yeah, ninety nine. So I go back
- 28:06to you. She was, she was. She was a beautiful thought.
- 28:11She was a beautiful thought. She was she was a thought that she came
- 28:15out thought. See and now look at that because when I say thought,
- 28:21yeah, I mean positive, beautiful memory. Now you know, everybody cool
- 28:29and it's not like like different things. I know. I was like,
- 28:32people, it's going to become a meme becoming like, oh she was at
- 28:36thought. I was like, wait a minute, I know, later minute,
- 28:37that didn't a positive man, Please don't hurt me. Please don't hurt
- 28:41me. I promise you. It's but you know, and back in the
- 28:47day, it was a lot harder to you know, put your music out
- 28:48because you have to find a DJ, have to locate somebody who's going to
- 28:52play your record in the club or on the radio, and if they gave
- 28:56you a shot, you're like, oh my god, we made it.
- 28:59But now it's like you can just send a file and thereffer that's right there,
- 29:03click up a button. Really, you can download on Spotify, Apple,
- 29:07So tell us where we can find your music. Ice there you go,
- 29:10like you said, Spotify is the please follow us, you know,
- 29:14Apple to an Apple. We're basically on all streaming services. But I just
- 29:18use I'm just one little bit there when people sometimes if you search interlude,
- 29:22sometimes all the songs don't show up, so search interlude music within, which
- 29:26is the title of the album. For some reason, that kind of works.
- 29:30I'm don't have to make a reel about it because people ask, because
- 29:33people may asking, I'm trying to add your music when I do my post
- 29:37on whatever social media cycle. Okay, can you guys drop some names that
- 29:41you in the phil On community that we've you've already worked with or have come
- 29:45back to work with. Yeah, for sure, I mean the first one
- 29:48because mine is obviously. Can I our sisters, you know, we did
- 29:52a duet with them called Together as One on our Music Within album. Yes,
- 29:56and you know it's I mean from people say, it's kind of you
- 30:00know, Filipino Anthem out there because you know it's two of their favorite groups
- 30:04kind of joining for yeah, and you know combination, right, and I
- 30:08think the fans love that. They love when people kind of team up and
- 30:11so, but can I would be one? And then we also did a
- 30:15compilation with the other phild An artists like One Voice, d n H Kai
- 30:22Harmony exactly right. I'm just like Jocelyn. Yeah, sorry if I forget
- 30:26any because I'm getting full right, We're so Kai right premiere. I mean
- 30:38those are sisters, yeah, yeah, and so like there's the San Jose
- 30:44sound, there's a so Call sound. Now you guys are in Vegas,
- 30:47so I think it's going to merge and you guys are going to evolve into
- 30:49this the Ninth Island Solesion. I mean, it's it's good, It's gonna
- 30:56be awesome, amazing, especially for now then to have there and to perform
