Asia’s Pop Idol Christian Bautista and “Little Big Star” grand prize winner Sam Concepcion will hold a free back-to-back birthday concert on October 15, Sunday, 6 p.m. at SM Mall of Asia Music Hall.

Christian and Sam dedicate this free concert to fans who have been very supportive to their respective show biz endeavors since day one and more especially in the past few months. “This will be the perfect venue to express our heartfelt gratitude to all the fans who never fail to amaze us with their love and energy and who continuously inspire us to become better performers and role models,” says Christian.

October birthday boys Christian and Sam certainly have so much reason to celebrate with their avid followers.

Christian’s international sophomore album titled “Completely,” under Warner Music Philippines, recently reached platinum status in the Philippines and Indonesia. His signature song, “The Way You Look At Me,” has hit the airwaves in Singapore. A live concert at Fort Canning Stadium in the Lion City is set by end of October. Moreover, Christian recently inked endorsement deals with San Miguel Corporation and St. Augustine School of Nursing. He’s also currently shooting his mainstream movie debut in Regal Films’ “Mano Po 5,” an official entry to the 2006 Metro Manila Film Festival. His original single “My Heart Has A Mind of His Own” has been adapted as the movie’s theme song.

Sam also has his own share of exceptional feats like his Kuya Christian. After winning the highly coveted “Brightest Star” title in ABS CBN’s “Little Big Star” Season One competition, he clinched the “Pinoy Wannabe” Award at the 2006 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards. “Miko,” a short film written and directed by Paolo Dy, featuring Sam and his real life father, won at the 2006 Bogen Film and Video Shorts Competition in New York. Sam’s regular appearance as “Boy Bawang” in ABS CBN’s fantaserye “Super Inggo” has endeared him further among his rapidly growing fan base. He’s also currently waxing his debut album with Universal Records.

Christian and Sam’s free birthday concert dubbed “Back2Back Birthday Bash” will feature songs their fans would want to hear from their singing idols. Asian heartthrob Christian will serenade his fans with his romantic hits while “Tween Idol” Sam will dish out popular dance tunes. Playshop Kids’ Tippy dos Santos will be one of the special guests. Audie Gemora directs.

The singing stars’ respective fan clubs, Christian Friends and Samsters, are all invited to watch the concert and play some games. Concert begins at 6 p.m. Fans can show up at SM Mall of Asia Music Hall as early as 4 p.m. to sign-up. Seats will be on a first come first served basis.
