About the band
The Camerawalls is an indie pop band based in Manila, Philippines formed in 2007 by singer and guitarist
Clementine, the main songwriter of the band and formerly of Orange and Lemons.
From an indie status with a cult following back in 2003 to mainstream success and natiowide sensation in
2005 via a series of hit singles thru a major label, the news of Orange and Lemons breakup in 2007 resulted from the premature exit of Clementine from the music scene. Clementine immediately formed a new band on September 2007 under the name The Camerawalls. It showcased his songwriting prowess that manifested in his earlier works collaborating with old friends Law Santiago and Ian Sarabia.
To support The Camerawalls' releases and go as far as establishing full creative control and marketing
his own music, Clementine also founded Lilystars Records, an independent record label determined to
house the sensibility and aesthetics of indie pop music in the Philippines. On March 2008, The Camerawalls released a sample of their music with an unofficial single "Markers Of Beautiful Memories" over the internet and slowly gained attention and following and eventually picked up by radio. With the release of the debut album "Pocket Guide To The Otherworld" on July 3, 2008 and success of the single "Clinically Dead For 16 Hours," The Camerawalls became an example of a remarkable music production in true indie spirit.
"Pocket Guide To The Otherworld" has become a landmark release that showed people what happens when
contemporary indie pop meets good old Filipino sensibilities.
