ena mori is 'KING OF THE NIGHT!' with her Album of the Year win at the 2023 Awit Awards.

Tonight (09/11) was a night to remember for the 'VIVID' singer-songwriter as she bagged the award for Album of the Year for her stunning full-length record DON'T BLAME THE WILD ONE at the 36th Awit Awards.

The colourful 12-track offering, which was released under Offshore Music, was written and recorded during the pandemic with the help of producer timothy Run, recording engineer Audry Dionisio, and mixing and mastering engineers Emil Dela Rosa and Sam Marquez.

'I think the most consistent theme is that all of the songs are something that I feel uncomfortable talking about,' the 'FALL INLOVE!' act shares with Bandwagon. 'I wanted to make this album a safe place for me to express things without any filter.'
