There comes a point in life when you realize you’re no longer the same person who walked into a room years ago.
Somewhere between old friendships and new beginnings, between staying and leaving, between holding on and learning to let go, we quietly change. We carry pieces of those moments with us, often without realizing it.

For FIONA, those moments became ROOMS.
Released on all major streaming platforms, ROOMS is the band’s long-awaited full-length album and the culmination of stories, experiences, and songs collected throughout their sixteen-year journey. More than a collection of tracks, the album serves as a reflection on memory, growth, and the people and places that continue to shape us long after we’ve moved on from them.

Written across different chapters of the band’s life, ROOMS brings together songs born from different seasons. Some were written in moments of uncertainty. Others emerged from change, reflection, hope, and the realization that growing older often means learning how to carry the past without living in it.

At the heart of the album is a simple idea: every song is a room.
Some rooms feel familiar. Some challenge us. Some become places we revisit in our minds long after we’ve left them behind. Together, the songs invite listeners into stories that are deeply personal to the band, yet strikingly familiar to anyone who has ever missed someone, found comfort in friendship, questioned their direction, or wondered what comes next.

For longtime listeners, ROOMS also serves as a quiet thank-you.
The album finally gives an official home to fan-favorite tracks “Say” and “Umaga”—songs that have existed alongside the band for years and have become part of FIONA’s story. Their inclusion feels less like a release and more like a reunion; a gesture of gratitude to the listeners who have stayed, supported, and grown with the band through the years.
Listeners may already be familiar with songs such as Sinag, Iba Na Pala, and Anong Gagawin Mo Ngayon, which served as early doorways into the album’s universe. But ROOMS reveals its full meaning when heard from beginning to end. Led by its carrier single, Moving, the album unfolds as a journey through memory, change, and self-discovery—capturing the moments, relationships, and places that continue to shape us long after we’ve left them behind.

ROOMS was never meant to be experienced as a single song.
It was built like a house.
Each track opens a different door, revealing a different memory, perspective, or chapter of the journey. While listeners can enter anywhere, the album reveals its fullest story when experienced from beginning to end.
For those who own the physical CD, that journey becomes even more tangible. Accompanied by visual artwork, narrative elements, and carefully curated details, ROOMS invites listeners to spend time inside its world—not just to hear the songs, but to walk through them. In an era of playlists and quick listens, the album offers something increasingly rare: the opportunity to slow down and experience a record as a complete body of work.

The album was officially launched on June 5 at The 70’s Bistro in Quezon City, where supporters, friends, family, and members of the local music community gathered to celebrate its release. Joined by special guests Mayonnaise, Autotelic, VIE, and bird., the evening transformed the venue into a living extension of the album itself—a room filled with stories, shared memories, and people connected by music.
More than a launch, it became a reminder of what the album has always been about. Not just the rooms themselves, but the lives lived inside them.

The conversations that lasted longer than expected. The people who stayed. The people who left. The memories that linger. The versions of ourselves we meet along the way.
Sixteen years into their journey, FIONA isn’t simply looking back.
They’re opening the door and inviting listeners to step inside.
Because if there’s one thing ROOMS reminds us, it’s that every life is made up of rooms—and every room has a story worth remembering.
