| Sabrina at Dahsyat |
Asia’s Acoustic Sweetheart Sabrina proves once again her popularity in Southeast Asia as she
held a very successful showcase in Indonesia last March 24 at Supermal Karawaci
in Jakarta.
Loads of fans inside and outside Jakarta flocked to
the venue to see and sing along with her. Indonesian acts Jubing Kristiano and
Lala Karmela opened the show for Sabrina. She dazzled the crowd with songs from
her “I Love Acoustic” series which
made her a household name not only in this archipelago but also other countries
such as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Midway through her set, Universal
Music Indonesia surprised Sabrina when she was formally presented with a
PLATINUM AWARD for her latest album “I Love Acoustic 4”. Her past albums “I
Love Acoustic” and “I Love Acoustic Too” were certified DOUBLE PLATINUM while
“I Love Acoustic 3” is PLATINUM in that country at the same time also achieving
GOLD status in Singapore and Thailand.
Sabrina also took time to promote
her newest record through visits to top Indonesian radio stations Mustang FM
and U FM before the show. She also guested at the #1 variety show in Indonesia
“Dahsyat” where after the show, her twitter followers shot up from 6,000 to
over 10,000. Several billboards of her also sprawled over Jakarta to promote
the show.
The tour was so successful that plans are already
lined up for another major show in Indonesia in time for the release of her new
album under MCA Music (Universal Music Philippines. Last year, she was invited
to perform at Kampoeng Jazz Festival in Bandung and shows in the city of Semarang.
Sabrina is only one of the 2 Filipino singers who have legitimately made it in
this country and other parts of Southeast Asia with what her albums have
achieved and in terms of fan following.
Here in the Philippines, “I Love Acoustic 4” debuted at #1 at Astroplus and #9 at Odyssey
upon its first week of release. Because of her success abroad, she became a
recipient of the “International Achievement Award at the recent Awit Awards
where she also took home the I-Gateway
Mobile Philippines, Inc.'s Most Downloaded Artist for 2010.
