ALAMAT is pushing the envelope of its artistry this year, and we’re about to see a lot more of the group on our screens than ever before.
From the moment Taneo, Tomas, R-ji, Alas, Mo, and Jao entered the Pinoy pop (P-pop) industry, they’ve constantly proven to be multifaceted performers in every aspect. Besides the meaningful stories they tell through music, which have unapologetically showcased their roots alongside Filipino culture and history, the boys have earned their stripes as P-pop idols in multiple artistic fields, such as creative direction, production, songwriting, and even entrepreneurship.

Now, fresh off the success of their new album, Destino, the six members of ALAMAT are taking their exceptional talent and passion to new heights with their Magiliws. Their latest pursuits? Acting in phenomenal local theater productions and book-to-screen adaptations.
It goes without saying that ALAMAT has come a long way, from hardworking trainees to versatile P-pop artists who continue to persevere towards their lifelong dreams. Are you ready to join them in their upcoming adventures onscreen and onstage? Here’s where you can tune in to the multilingual boy group’s exciting endeavors throughout the year:
Taneo Sebastian in Ang Mutya ng Section E, Book 2: The Dark Side
Numerous new names and faces are ready to cause chaos in the intense second season of Ang Mutya ng Section E. Among these intriguing characters is Ryosuke Sato, played by ALAMAT’s leader, Taneo.
Magiliws have yet to witness Taneo take on the role of a high-profile rebel. Regardless, we can’t wait to see how he’ll give life to the tatted troublemaker who’s hell-bent on stirring drama in the chaotic lives of Jay-jay (Ashtine Olviga), Keifer (Andres Muhlach), Yuri (Rabin Angeles), and the rest of Section E.
You can tune in to new episodes of Ang Mutya ng Section E, Book 2: The Dark Side every Friday on Viva One.
