Emerging folk-pop artist Amiel Sol makes his triumphant return with “Nahanap Kita,” his first single of the year following the success of his sentimental 2024 hit “Sa Bawat Sandali.” Released under Viva Records and Ivory Records, the track showcases Sol’s growing confidence as both a vocalist and songwriter, conveying emotional depth compared to his previous singles.
The song’s premise is a serendipitous love story born from unexpected encounters, belying its sophisticated craftsmanship. Over sparse, acoustic-driven instrumentation, Sol’s warm vocals and nuanced phrasing elevate what could have been a simple love song into something more profound. It is this ability to find complexity in simplicity that has become his signature, earning him slots at prestigious venues like Jess&Pat’s, where he shared the stage with Johnoy Danao, and the UP Fair, where his debut acted as a rite of passage fit for a rising Filipino artist.
What sets “Nahanap Kita” apart is its demonstration of Sol’s maturing perspective on romance. Rather than focusing on grand gestures or heartbreak, he captures the quiet magic of connection; the stolen glances and chance meetings that often lead to lasting relationships. This subtle approach reflects his broader artistic evolution: where “Sa Bawat Sandali” wallowed in sorrow, this new single embraces possibility. In a genre often dominated by formulaic ballads, Sol’s commitment to emotional authenticity makes him one to watch.
The song will be heard live for the first time on April 24 at Viva Cafe in Cubao, Quezon City, where Sol will be joined by special guests.
