Christmas, Unite As One: KWC Artists Celebrate the Season Through Music

Christmas Season 2025 | In the true spirit of the holidays, Karaoke World Championships (KWC) artists come together to share a message of unity, hope, and togetherness through “Christmas, Unite As One,” a collaborative Christmas performance produced by The New Channel (TNC) Media Corp.

Performed by Kathleen Follero, Jovie Loon, Samantha Cedro, Klarylle, and Glenn Hidalgo, the song highlights not only vocal excellence but also the power of collective expression. Set in an intimate setting at the Big Baby Studio — the birthplace of the well-known band, Itchyworms,  the KWC artists’ chemistry and shared purpose reflect the heart of the season — coming together as one through music.

“For us, this song is about connection,” said Kathleen Follero. “Christmas is a reminder that no matter where we come from, music has the power to unite us.”

Jovie Loon shared that the collaboration made the message even more meaningful. “Singing this with fellow KWC artists felt like family. It reminded me that Christmas is not just about celebration, but about community that we are part of and that we are building together.”

Written and composed by Apple Esplana-Manansala, KWC Philippines Country Director and Chief Executive Producer at The New Channel (TNC)Christmas, Unite As One speaks to the universal longing for kindness, peace and understanding. The song encourages listeners to look beyond differences and embrace compassion — values that resonate deeply during the holiday season.

“Each artist brought their own story and heart into the performance,” said Samantha Cedro. “That’s what makes this song special — it’s honest, it’s shared, and it’s filled with hope.”

KWC Philippine’s resident music arranger Edgar Heath adds depth and warmth to the track, while publication through Symphonic Asia ensures its global reach. The project was produced by The New Channel (TNC) Media Corp., reflecting TNC’s continued commitment to purpose-driven content and independent and new artist’s empowerment.

“This project was never just about recording a Christmas song,” said Esplana-Manansala. “It was about creating a space where artists could come together, reflect the spirit of the season, and remind audiences that unity is still possible — especially through music.”

For Klarylle, the experience carried a deeper meaning. “This song reminds us that even in difficult times, Christmas gives us a reason to hope and to come together.”

Glenn Hidalgo echoed the sentiment, adding, “Being part of this project made me realize how powerful shared voices can be. It’s a reminder that we are stronger when we sing — and stand — as one.”
