SkyePiea was originally SchyePiea. Doing J-Rock (Japanese Rock Covers)
with Jrock influenced members, Maku Felix (Vox and Guitars) Aira Guiam (Guitars) Myden Tiongson (Drums) and RJay (Bass). Sadly Aira needed to leave the group due to unexpected events.
SchyePiea rested for a long while until Maku decided to give it another shot. New members, Alec Egido (Guitars) and Karu Bacani (Guitars) became part of SchyePiea but didnt work out. Sometime in 2007 Maku met Angelo and decided to take him in for Karu's position and together with Audsie for the Synths position. Things were going well, SchyePiea started off with simple jam sessions while they were looking for a drummer and a new bassist since the original bassist left and Myden decided to leave.
Before 2007 ended, Alec left SchyePiea due to some issues and we were left with Maku, Angelo and Audsie. They had their first gig in August 2, 2007 at Als Bar BF Paranaque, Philippines. SchyePiea was changed to SkyePiea for a fresh start. With original compositions and a whole new line up.
As SkyePiea was performing in bars and events, they had session instrumentalists to fill in stuff for them.
The sessionists were from different bands and were really helpful.
They are as follows:
Lawrence Napoco - Freddie Aguilar (Drums)
Jeric Dela Cruz - AwayForTheDay (Drums)(Guitar)
Aaron Caligner - DLSU pops orchestra (Bass)
Alan Malabanan - (Bass)
JP Gabutin - AwayForTheDay (Guitars)
Juan Carlo MAgsalin - Wink(Bass)
Sho Hikino - Salamin (Guitar)
JC Bermudez - F.I.O. (Bass)
They were present during our gigs, jammings and even helped us out during the recordings of our demos.
