A musician since the early 1980s, Lampano has blazed trails in whatever genre he’s chosen to perform. His influence over the succeeding generation of musicians is evident in the homage paid to him by the band Sandwich, which mentions him in their song “Betamax”—“Disyembre ni Binky Lampano”—a reference to the first band he was a part of, new wave group Deans December.
In the early ‘90s, he flourished in a solo rock career, recording the hits “Kwentong Looban” and “Hallelujah”, among others.After that he discovered the blues—“it was a revelation”/
The late great blues legend, B.B. King, once said: “If you’re white and you play the blues, you’re black once. If you’re black and you play the blues, you’re black twice.” But what if you’re brown and you sing the blues? Are you brown-black once? Or perhaps brown-black twice?
