Sharlene San Pedro sprints through borrowed time on pop-rock single “Running”


Outside of her acting and hosting accolades, Sharlene San Pedro has successfully branched

out into a music career, landing a top 10 hit with a cover of Mayonnaise’s “Paraan” in 2016 

and dropping her second single “Stars & Caramel Bars” to commercial acclaim in 

2017. 


With the guidance of Mayonnaise’s lead singer and chief songwriter-producer Monty 

Macalino, the young multimedia star has released songs that balance teen pop with easy-

listening sensibilities—a signature sound that she continues to hone and develop through 

her stint in the music industry for more than five years.


Fast forward to 2022, Sharlene returns with a new song that takes listeners through a 

journey of introspection, in search of something possibly out of reach. Written and 

produced  by Macalino, with Angee Rozul as its sound engineer, “Running” is a punchy 

midtempo tune that ranks among her finest in terms of range and delivery. “My past 

releases  are slow and easy listening, so this time, Yellow Room Music, especially sir

Monty, is trying to aim for a little upbeat kind of song for my new single,” Sharlene shares 

in a statement.


“Running” also serves as one of the culminating releases for Sony Music Philippines’

International Women’s Day Campaign #BabaeAko, which aims to put a spotlight on 

women and female artists under the label’s roster through several online and promotional 

activities this March 2022.


Sharlene San Pedro’s “Running” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via

YR Music and Sony Music Philippines.
