Filipino-Japanese RADAR artist ena mori brought her genre-defying pop to the Spotify .ORG Stage at Summer Sonic 2026, one of the world’s biggest music festivals as her audience continues to grow beyond the Philippines.

Since joining RADAR Philippines last year ena’s global streams have nearly doubled. The US, Japan, Canada, the UK, and Germany are now among her biggest markets outside the Philippines She performed alongside SB19 and BINI, marking the first time three Filipino acts performed at the festival in the same year, reflecting the growing international visibility of Filipino artists.

“I’m so grateful to be able to do what I love as part of RADAR. To see the journey from smaller stages to a moment like this, and to share it with so many of my fellow artists, is something I’m incredibly proud of. I feel very lucky to be here, and I’m especially grateful to my fans who continue to support me and my music,” ena mori. She opened with “KING OF THE NIGHT!” — a synth-pop track from DON’T BLAME THE WILD ONE!, “Ichigo Milk,” a collab with Japanese trackmaker Tomggg and high-energy “19 Underground.” As she performed, “little sunny baby,” she revealed that six years ago she’d written in her diary, “I hope I can play Summer Sonic someday,”

ena’s rise coincides with a shift across the region. In 2025, nearly half of the Top 20 most globally streamed RADAR artists came from Southeast Asia. The RADAR Philippines playlist itself has tripled in streams over the past year, with significant listenership from the US, Canada, UAE, Australia, and Singapore.

“Asia is producing some of the most exciting emerging talent today, and ena mori represents the originality coming from the Philippines.
