The 12/21 is a Filipino-Canadian punk rock trio originally formed in Manila, Philippines, and now based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Comprising three talented brothers—Roman Maceda and twins Rico and Roque Maceda—the band is known for their high-energy performances and infectious sound. Business Mirror described them as “bursting with energy, emanating spunk, and quite simply, extremely catchy.”
Their single Misery was named the number one track of 2023 on Spotify’s Fresh Finds Philippines. The 12/21 has earned accolades such as a nomination for Punk Band of the Year at the Manitoba Loud Music Awards and have amassed over 200,000 streams across various Spotify playlists under their label, Viva Records (Philippines).
They’ve toured in Manila, performed live on the iconic Wish 107.5 FM Bus, played Canadian Music Week in Toronto, and were featured on CBC Manitoba following their label signing in 2021. Earlier, they won the Jim Beam National Talent Search in 2019 and opened for Arnel Pineda, the current lead vocalist of American rock legends Journey.
