General Santos City, Philippines
Genrhythmics as a division of the General Santos City Government Employees Performing Arts Company was created on July 13, 2005. The original members, handpicked by the Honorable City Mayor, Pedro B. Acharon, JR., are local government employees. The group’s exposures include, but not limited to, government functions and affairs, especially during state dinners for special guests and dignitaries. As such, much is expected of the group as its audience demands class, clarity of lyrics and music, fun and excitement. Its repertoire transcends era and genre. Among the well-loved and highly acclaimed renditions are contemporary and pop, rhythm and blues, alternative, smooth jazz, bossanova, mellow rock and country. GenRhythmics’s comparative advantage over other popular bands in the city is the professionalism of the member artists whose passion for music is the driving force for unparalleled performance on or off stage.

The Company



The Government Employees Performing Arts Company was recently created by virtue of Executive Order No. 034, series of 2008. The existing groups, namely: the choir, dance troupe and band, were previously independent from each other. The primary purpose of these groups was to provide performances in special occasions such as festivals, conferences, ans such other programs, not only to entertain but more importantly to advocate, promote, educate and encourage the development and appreciation of culture and arts in General Santos City.

Since all the three groups have common objectives and goals, there is a need to consolidate these efforts for a unified artistic framework, and the proper artistic growth of each member performer.

With Edgar "Egai" D. Cadiente as its Artistic Director, it is without a doubt that The Company will uncover fresh insights, stretch its potentials and discover new heights in the realms of performing arts.
