Alamat (group)

Alamat (Baybayin: ᜀᜎᜋᜆ᜔) (stylized in all caps) is a Filipino boy band formed in 2020 by Viva Artists Agency and Ninuno Media. The group consists of six members: Taneo, Mo, Jao, Tomás, R-Ji and Alas. The members hail from different regions of the Philippines and sing in a variety of local languages.

History
Formed through Pwede: The National Boyband Search, the group distinguishes itself as a multilingual and multiethnic boy band that sings in seven Philippine languages: Tagalog, Ilocano, Kapampangan, Cebuano, Hiligaynon, Bikolano, and Waray-Waray. After training for nine months, the group debuted on February 14, 2021, with their first single, "Kbye".

Originally a nine-piece ensemble, Kin departed the group in late March 2021 for personal reasons, followed by Valfer and Gami, who also left in late March 2022. Alamat holds the distinction of being the second P-pop group to make it on Billboard's Next Big Sound chart, debuting at number two. They were also regarded as the fastest-rising Filipino act on this chart.
