Kapamilya singer-songwriter Trisha Denise opens up about her journey to songwriting and how it led her to compose songs for various renowned artists.
The up-and-coming artist has a wide array of discography including Regine Velasquez and Moira Dela Torre’s “Unbreakable,” Pops Fernandez’s “Get It Poppin,” and Belle Mariano’s “Somber and Solemn” and many more.
“Sobrang humbling ng experience na pinagkakatiwalaan ako na magsulat ng kanta for these icons and legends kasi I just write by myself in my room at usually iilan lang yung makakarinig, yung mga tao sa studio and then biglang ilalabas na ng record label kaya palaki nang palaki yung responsibility pero I’m so grateful sa trust na ibinibigay sa akin,” Trisha said during her recent “Simula ng Wakas” EP celebration.
At first, Trisha never saw herself pursuing music as she had her mind set on becoming a chef. However, her heart found its rightful place in music when she learned how to play a guitar and started writing songs that led her to life changing opportunities.
“Nung nag-start na ko gumawa ng sarili kong kanta, nagustuhan ko siya kaya iyon na rin yung pinursue ko hanggang college. Sumali rin ako sa songwriting competitions hanggang sa nauwi ako sa first published song ko for Janella Salvador’s debut album,” Trisha shared.
As a recording artist, Trisha released her first single “Mahalaga” from the soundtrack of “Between Maybes.” In 2021, she released her debut album “Piece of the Puzzle” which spawned the singles “Liliwanag,” “Ika’y Mamahalin,” and “Mamahalin.” Last year, Trisha returned with her six-track EP “Simula Ng Wakas” that tackles unpacking one’s emotional baggage and finding courage to move forward in life.
“It tells the story of having a painful past and the transformation to welcome new beginnings. Para ito sa mga tao na naghahanap ng fresh start sa kanilang buhay,” she explained.
Through her journey in the music industry, Trisha has discovered her formula to creating music which is letting personal stories shine in her artistry.
“Kung ano yung lumalabas na raw feelings and emotions na susulat ko, iyon yung Trisha sound. It’s more on the personal stories,” she said.
