Hale

Hale is a Filipino alternative rock band from Manila, Philippines. The group consists of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Champ Lui Pio, bassist Sheldon Gellada, lead guitarist Roll Martinez, violinist Chino David and drummer Paolo Santiago.

Hale was originally formed in 2004. The band released its first self-titled, award-winning and well received album, Hale, under PolyEast Records in 2005 and instantly became success on several radios nationwide as well as around in southeast Asia with the signature song The Day You Said Goodnight. 

Rumors of the band reuniting, while not widespread, started online in mid-2014 until word became official that the band had reunited through their gig on January 13, 2015. This was also their first gig since their break-up in 5 years. Their first single "See You" debuted on January 27, 2015.

On September 2017, the band released "Alon", accompanied by its lyric video. The song was later featured in the soundtrack for the 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival entry, Siargao. The song was awarded "Best Theme Song" at the awards show held on December 27, 2017.  After touring with the band in early 2017, violinist Chino David (formerly of Silent Sanctuary) has officially joined the band on October 9, 2017.
