All Songs are arranged by Milagro.
All sounds come from guitar, bass, drums and vocals.
Milagro was formed back in mid 2007 when college block mates Migs Rabat (guitar) and Jamon Chan (drums) met in their first days of college. They initially had the idea to form a band for the sheer fun of it. After scouting several possible members, they met former Almost Heroes front man Jobim Javier (vocals), and was more than happy to help in this endeavor. Jobim had sessioned a couple of times with the enigmatic band Pin as a guitarist, but decided to join Milagro because of “creative differences” with Pin. Having secured their vocalist, Migs and Jamon searched for a bassist. Jobim suggested childhood friend Tricco Yumul, who was, coincidentally, Jamon’s classmate in high school, and was found to be the “perfect fit” according to the other members. However, in spite of having a certain degree of proficiency in playing the bass, he wasn't a natural bassist; he was a guitarist, but nevertheless decided to serve as the band's official bassist. In September 2008, his brother, Kurt, was invited to join the band as its new bassist, so that he may be able to concentrate on playing guitar alongside Migs. The name Milagro came after the band initially wanted to call itself MakiSindi (filipino for “to give light”).
