Filipino singer-songwriter/producer raven puts a modern spin on Pinoy-style courtship with new song “Hara”

After racking up more than 10 million streams with his debut EP Lika Na, rising singer-songwriter/producer raven reimagines traditional ‘harana’ with a modern twist on his new single “Hara”—out today via Sony Music Philippines.

Bringing the distinct practice of Pinoy-style courtship to an entirely new audience, raven serenades the object of his affection with lyrics that showcase his sincere intentions. 

“Unlike some of the songs that I’ve written so far, most of which are mere expressions of admiration, this particular track chronicles the experience of wooing someone in hopes of capturing their heart,” the young musician shares. “It’s an expression of sentimental nature, but it also comes from a place of humility on the suitor’s end.”
