The iconic and legendary singer turns 62 on Thursday, Aug. 6, 2026.

Gary Valenciano is celebrating his 62nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Gary Valenciano (Lead Me Lord, How Did You Know, ASAP, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 62nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Valenciano, a cultural icon

Born Edgardo José Martin Santiago Valenciano in Manila on August 6, 1964, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Filipino history. Valenciano's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Gary hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Gary Valenciano as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 62.

Happy Birthday, Gary, you're the best!
