On August 23, 2018, Lansangan together with her guitarist, Josh Villena, performed as an opening act for the highly revered pop punk band, Paramore, on their third visit to Manila, Philippines for their Tour Four.

Personal life

Published author

Lansangan has also co-authored a poetry book, In Case You Come Back with Marla Miniano and Jamie Catt in 2016.[14] The book contains musings on different topics such as love, family, adventures, childhood, insecurities, and quirks, among other things. In September 2017, the three of them released a second book called, The Maps That Contain Us, a poetry and flash fiction book.[15]

Reading advocacy

Lansangan has acknowledged that books and reading play a big part of her life, and a big influence on her art. During a holiday in the US in 2015, she started a personal tradition she refers to as the #ArigatoInternetHunt, where she hides copies of her album in various books, for strangers to find.[16] She turned the tradition into an official promotion event, working with the Philippine bookstore chain Fully Booked (which she referred to as her "favorite bookstore."[16]) in 2017.[17]
