HISTORY
In the summer of '94 best friends Noel Palomo and Wowie Flores had this thought "Masyado nang magulo ang Mundo, ano kaya ang magagawa natin para makatulong?" a very good question indeed considering the fact that none of them was rich, and the only thing they had is an old guitar and songs that no one has ever heard but them. So they decided to form a group that would help awaken the minds of troubled youth in their hometown. So they formed an alliance with Athony Cervantes whom is considered as a guitar extra ordinaire and James Rodriguez a well renowned drummer. They called themselves "SIAKOL", siakol pertaining to a free, happy and sometimes naughty state of mind.
Siakol immediately made their presence felt because of their hard - hitting songs and gained the respect of the public. Although considered as a very young group of talents, one of the most respected recording company recognized their potential and capabilities. Alpha Recording Company offered them a contract that will make them certified recording artist. Their first public appearance were as guest at a "Battle of the Bands" in their hometown in Paranaque, and from that day on it was already considered history in the making.
