Maria Therese "Reese" Lansangan is a Filipino musician, singer-songwriter, visual artist, graphic designer, fashion designer, and published author. She is best known for her 2015 debut album "Arigato, Internet!", and for being half of the indie duo Reese and Vica.
In 2013, she was accepted into the Philippines' highly esteemed Elements National Music Camp, where she was mentored by the likes of Ryan Cayabyab, Joey Ayala and Noel Cabangon, among others.
In December 6, 2015, Lansangan launched her debut album called "Arigato, Internet!" at Green Sun, Makati. The album, being her way of thanking the Internet, consists of 11 songs, which was written and produced by herself, with help from some friends.
All tracks written by Reese Lansangan.
A year after, Lansangan announced that the album would have a limited edition reissue, having 7 bonus songs in collaboration with other local artists. The repackaged album was launched in February 12, 2017 at A Space, Makati.
Additional tracks:
A surprise, four-tracked EP titled "Of Sound Mind & Memory" was released on April 30, 2017, described by Lansangan as "a deeply personal reflection of life and human condition".
All tracks written by Reese Lansangan.
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. 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.") in 2017.
