3/F Sitio Grande Bldg., 409 A. Soriano Avenue, Intramuros, Manila
Garch says: Not music. And I don't know who she is. But I thought it might be interesting. Here's what I do know: Tria Andrews is based in the states, and will be high-tailing it out of here after this gig (as Fullbright scholars are wont to do). So if you wanna hear what she has to say... Check out the event invite on FB.
