The longest-running Pinoy rock band, The Dawn, has a new album and a new guitarist. Their new album is entitled “Sound The Alarm” and was just launched last Sept 11 at the Eastwood Central Plaza. It contains 10 tracks and their current single is “Avenida”.

Aside from the new album, they also have a new guitarist who is Kenneth Ilagan. He replaced Francis Reyes who has been in the band since Teddy Diaz passed away in 1989. There are rumors that Francis and drummer JB Leonor had a fight which also involves Francis’s wife, Nina. According to some sources, Francis asked for a month’s vacation but management did not agree to it. Then JB allegedly spread the rumor that Francis had already left the band when Francis did not even resign.

There are only 2 members who are from the original line up of The Dawn left who is Jett Pangan (vocalist) and JB Leonor (drummer). Ex-Eraserheads bassist Buddy Zabala joined the band in 2005.
