MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Francis Pangilinan filed a resolution congratulating and commending Filipino P-pop supergroup SB19 for becoming the first Filipino act to perform at Lollapalooza, one of the world's largest and most influential music festivals.
Filed on Tuesday, Senate Resolution 573 honors SB19's historic performance at Lollapalooza Chicago 2026 and recognizes the group's role in bringing Original Pilipino Music (OPM) to a global audience.
SB19 is a five-member group composed of Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin. Touted as the "Kings of P-Pop," the group pioneered the modern Filipino idol group movement and made history in 2021 as the first Filipino act nominated at the Billboard Music Awards under Top Social Artist.
"Their performance at Lollapalooza is a momentous occasion in celebrating Filipino excellence in music, arts, and dance," Pangilinan said in the resolution.
"It cements the global significance of Original Pilipino Music and highlights the impact of Filipino talent in the performing arts," he added.
