The past few decades have blessed us with a lot of boy bands who inspired us, made us feel the “kilig,” and got us so hooked to music – which is probably the best part of idolizing an all-male group. Alongside other super hit boybands like Backstreet Boys, NSync,Boyzone, and Westlife, we have another 90s ultimate crushes – the boys of 98 Degrees.
Back then, there wasn’t a single kid, teen, and people in love who didn’t know about the songs “Because of You,” “I Do,” “Invisible Man,” and “Season of Love.” This American band definitely stole the spotlight in the music scene until we stopped hearing them sing together in 2002.
But after they got disbanded for a decade, they got back together and have been doing reunion tours up to the present. So here they are again, taking over the music world, to relive the greatest songs they’ve released which made so many people fall in love with them.
The 98 Degrees, one of the world’s most pop and R&B bands, is making their way to the Philippines so everyone’s excited to see them live on stage. And they won’t be doing just one performance but three! So be ready Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao because this quartet is coming to major cities in the three Philippine islands.
As a prelude, promoter Big Hits Events held last March 5 where two Front Acts graced the gathering to give as a glimpse on the famous hits of 98 Degrees. The 4-time champion of the ABS CBN singing contest, “Tawag ng Tanghalan,” Christian Biando sang his own rendition of “I Do.” Also present was TNT’s All-Star Resbak Champ Mark Michael Garcia.

Comprised of Nick Lachey, Drew Lachey, Jeff Timmons, and Justin Jeffre, 98 Degrees will be at the SMX Convention Center in Davao City on May 16, 2020; followed by a show at the SM Mall of Asia Arena on May 21, 2020; and wrapped up by a concert at the Waterfront Hotel and Casino in Cebu on May 23, 2020.
The band was initially announced to start their music tour dubbed as “An Evening with 98 Degrees” The Philippine Tour 2020 last February 2020, but due to the health concerns brought by the COVID-19, it was pushed back to May when it’s warmer.
