Never the Strangers, formerly known as Leonecast, was formed in 2006. After a series of member changes, it had been decided upon to change the name of the group.
The name "Never the Strangers" signifies a new start, not only to the band but also to the local music scene. No one is, and no one will ever be strangers to one another in music.
This is definitely not the case with Never The Strangers. Composed of Ace Libre on vocals and keyboards, Francis Victa on bass, PJ La Viña on drums and JP del Mundo on guitars, this young band from Ateneo De Manila University has already proven that they can churn out hits with their first single “Alive,” which has already charted in many radio stations and local music channel MYX, and the band is close to duplicating that with their second single “Moving Closer.”
