Save Me Hollywood

Save Me Hollywood is a Filipino rock, pop punk, alternative band, formed in 2010. The band consists of former Myx VJ Juliann “Julz” Savard on vocals, Aaron Isaac Corvera and Kenneth Wayne Aranza on guitars, Carlos “Calde” Calderon on bass and Melvin Macatiag on drums. The band released their first EP through the 2013 February issue of PULP magazine and followed it up with their first full-length album Your Story To Tell in 2013 of June.

History

The idea of forming a female-fronted band started from Calde Calderon sharing it with drummer Melvin Macatiag way before Save Me Hollywood came about. It was only when Calderon met Julz Savard during a taping session for a local music channel where they both worked for did the plan came into fruition. The original line-up consists of Savard, Calderon, Macatiag, with Luigi Tuazon of Jejaview and Ariel Lumanlan of Chicosci and Arcadia which later had to leave because of their priorities with their respective bands. As for the band name, ‘’We never really sat down and thought the name out. Names were just shot out, at one point, “Hollywood Ending” came to mind. But we looked it up and another band already went by that name. We literally had to think of one on the spot because it was our first gig. I forgot who, I think it was either me or Melvin who spat out, “Save Me” and it just stuck.” Savard explains on an interview and thus “Save Me Hollywood” was born.
