Around the summer of 2002, BIG MARVIN and his friends were asked to play Christian songs for a YFC youth camp. Back then the band was composed of 6 members (BIG MARVIN, KIKO, BUTCH, PATRICK, FRANKY AND CLARK) each of them realized that music is so much fun and they enjoyed jamming. they decided to formally form a band. Since all of them love REGGAE MUSIC they started to play reggae songs from different international and local artists.

Days and months passed. An unusual being by the name of AUBURN knocked on their door, so they decided to let him join the band, although he played no instrument. They recruited SHOTE to help in making things possible. The band got invitations but still they had no name. they found it very hard to find a band name with a very big impact to the local audience. then a very interesting name came came to be *viola! "BIG MARVIN AND THE WIGIWS" . As school started, AUBURN came across a guy named NOEL and he turned out to be a born musician as what he claims and became a WIGIW.

But as time went by, NOEL and FRANKY realized that they had other things to do, so they left. That's why we badly needed a new drummer. We all knew that God would make a way. And he really did. Because he gave us a very talented musician that could hit those drums very well. His name is BURSOG .
