Parokya Ni Edgar -Parish of Edgar- are the Philippines reigning court jesters, writing witty pop-punk songs with often strange subject matter. The band was formed in Ateneo High School in Manila, Philippines by six students: vocalist Chito Miranda, back-up singer and dancer Vinci Montaner, guitarists Darius Semana and Gab CheeKee, bassist Buwi Meneses, and drummer Dindin Moreno. Originally called Comic Relief, the group specialized in performing parodies of well-known songs. In 1994, the band began performing at Manila’s hotbed for alternative music, Club Dredd. The group’s oddball outfits and goofy stage antics made them local favorites. The band was eventually signed to Universal with the help of Richard Tan, the manager of Philippine punk groups the Youth and Teeth.
