The Academy of Rock (AOR), with Yeng Constantino as its lead act, had recently released its new album The Next Step Volume 2 with a spectacular showcase at the Music Museum. The occasion was also a charity concert for Bantay Bata that carried the slogan Lend Us A Hand, Give Them A Hope.
The album, featuring AOR students from Singapore and the Philippines, is part of the academy’s Outreach Program 2014, with all proceeds from both digital and physical sales to go directly to ABS-CBN’s Bantay Bata Foundation.
Just like in the first volume, all songs were written, arranged, performed, and produced entirely by students and teachers handpicked by the institution.
