Sam Milby Holds Concert at Glorietta Activity Center with Angeline Quinto

Sam Milby is going to share love, light and music to inspire us all.

Together with Angeline Quinto and the Steps Dance Studio Dancers, Sam will hold a concert tomorrow, November 13th, 6 PM, at the Glorietta Activity Center.

Sam will for sure sing songs from his latest album entitled Be Mine. The album debuted at number 1 on Astrovision's Top Sellers last September.

Fans of Sam will surely not miss this opportunity to see their idol live on stage because he will be leaving for New York to pursue an international career starting February next year. He will be staying there for a minimum of three months and that means he will not be doing Alta anymore, nor the Star Cinema movie with Bea Alonzo.
