Aside from Zia's notable vocal performance, her songwriting craft shines through the songs "Under and Over", "On The Run", "A Little Bit of Lovin", "Sweet Memories" which throw her trademark bluesy vocal and really got something to talk about the artistic evolution of or,= of the country's most-anticipated singer-songwriters.

This journey must have embraced the legacy that both her parents have given her - ZsaZsa Padilla, her mother's singing prowess and her father Dolphy Quizon's funny charm - but reveals an artist who has gone through a musical transformation paving her mark in the industry.
