Eevee (band)

Eevee is a 4-piece band from Davao City, Philippines. They emerged as champions of the Nescafe 3 in 1 Soundskool in 2009.[1][2] Part of the prize of the contest was a record deal with Sony Music.[3] They since relocated to Manila after winning. According to a live session in Newsroom 5 Hits, Paolo Segura and Enzo Villegas stated that the band is more or less named after the Pokémon Eevee, after deciding that calling themselves "Enzo Villegas' Band" was too 'selfish' on Enzo's part.[4]
