Imago Profile

Image PinoyBanda


Why the name Imago?

“It’s the Latini word for ‘Image’, although it has really no relevance to what the group is trying to project - even our idealism. We just find the work kind of cheesy” — Aia

Imago’s Sounds?

“Alternative, Rock. We have nothing againts show bands, really, but we don’t do covers” — Zach
