Rivermaya is currently composed of Mark Escueta, Mike Elgar, Ryan Peralta and Norby David.

History
Formation and early years (1993)
The first line-up consisted of Jesse Gonzales on vocals, Kenneth Ilagan on guitars, Nathan Azarcon on bass guitar, Rome Velayo on drums, and Rico Blanco on keyboards and backing vocals. They were managed by Lizza Nakpil and director Chito Roño. The band was then called Xaga.
Classic line-up and mainstream success (1994–2001)
Ilagan was replaced with Perfecto "Perf" de Castro; Azarcon's childhood friend, Mark Escueta, replaced Velayo, and Francisco "Bamboo" Mañalac replaced Gonzales. With Bamboo as frontman, the band members disbanded Xaga and formed the band Rivermaya. They started putting together original songs like "Ulan" [Rain], "214", and "Awit ng Kabataan" [Song of the Youth] (mostly composed by Rico Blanco) in demo form for prospective recording companies.
All songs were written by Rico Blanco except where noted.
Singles
"Ulan" was the first single released off this album, during the last quarter of 1993.
"214" is a pop rock/ballad song, released as the second official single. It went to number one spot in various charts in the Philippines. It replaced Eraserheads hit song "With a Smile" in N.U. 107.5 on 1994.
"Awit ng Kabataan", a folk, pop rock anthem, was released as the third single.
"Bring Me Down", a duet with Rico Blanco and Bamboo Manalac both on vocals, was released as the final single.
Critical reception
This album was critically praised for its fresh, excitingly-new pop/rock sound. It become one of the best sellers in the 1990s and still to this day.

You'll Be Safe Here - Rivermaya (You'll Be Safe Here Rivermaya Lyrics)
You'll Be Safe Here - Rivermaya (You'll Be Safe Here Rivermaya Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
Nobody knows
Just why we're here
Could it be fate or random circumstance
At the right place, at the right time
Two roads intertwine
[Verse 2]
And if the universe conspired
To meld our lives
To make us, fuel and fire
Then know wherever you will be
So too, shall I'll be
[Chorus 1]
Close your eyes
Dry your tears
'Cause when nothing seems clear
You'll be safe here
From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Weary heart
You'll be safe here
[Verse 3]
Remember how we laughed
Until we cried
At the most stupid things
Like we were so high
But love was all that we were on
We belong
[Verse 4]
And though the world would never understand
This unlikely union
And why it still stands
Someday we will be set free
Pray an...

When everything's unclear
You'll be safe here

Wounded heart

You'll be safe here
When nobody hears you scream
I'll scream with you

Through the long cold night
Sleep tight
You'll be safe here
When no one understands
I'll believe
You'll be safe
You'll be safe
You'll be safe here

Put your heart in my hands
You'll be safe here
