Yesterday (June 30, 2025), it was announced that beloved folk/pop hitmakers Ben&Ben are set to relaunch their paused The Traveller Across Dimensions Tour this August. With this, the band will be taking their exciting live performances to cities across the Philippines after a show in Lincoln, California.
Check out the remaining dates for The Traveller Across Dimensions Tour below:
- July 12 – Thunder Valley Casino Resort, Lincoln, California

- August 23 – John Hay Convention Center, Baguio City

The Philippine tour had held its Cebu leg on May 24, but succeeding shows had to be rescheduled to allow drummer Jam Villanueva to rest and recover from De Quervain’s tenosynovitis and drummer’s wrist on her left hand.
In a press conference held by the band, Villanueva shared her current state: “I’m on the road to recovery… The goal is to be able to play as soon as I can, in the healthiest way possible. Kasi ayaw din namin yung bibiglain yung katawan tapos magre-regress ‘yung progress natin (Because we also don’t want to shock my body and regress the existing progress), so the goal is to do it right.”
On a similar note, the band delved into their reflections following the incident: “We have grown together as a band and as people, but we know that there is still a lot of room for improvement. What we have realized over the past weeks is that when we are faced with seemingly impossible challenges, we are led to a very important moment of realization.” Furthermore, they add, “In this moment, we begin to understand that one of the ways we can overcome our struggle is by understanding the purpose of everything that we do.”
Additionally, in the same press conference, the nine-piece act announced they would be renewing their contract with Sony Music Philippines, and that a new EP is underway.
Sony Music Philippines’ General Manager, Roslyn Pineda, shared her sentiments: “I am incredibly honored and excited that Sony Music Philippines is renewing our partnership with Ben&Ben. They are not just one of the biggest artists on our roster, but also some of the most brilliant and inspiring talents of their generation.” On a heartwarming note, she concluded, “Their music has infused our country with hope and positivity and I look forward to embarking on this new chapter together.”
