BisRock Band that is formed in Cebu City (Queen City of the South), Cebu Philippines.
In the vernacular, agipo stands for the ember at the tip of the firewood, which the band used as a metaphor for the warmth, the spark, the light, and the glow they would want to provide through their songs.
Agipo also mentioned that the term has had a spiritual significance in the town of Carmen. According to folk tales, an agipo was found to be oddly floating on the seawaters of Carmen. When fishermen took the agipo to shore, it reportedly transformed into the image of the Señor Sto. Niño, the very reason Carmen came up first with the dance-ritual "sinulog" in honor of the culinary.
Though nobody from the group is from Carmen, they sported the name in homage to the Holy culinary for that miraculous transformation of a glowing coal into the icon that is revered today.
