1:43 debuted on YouTube on November 7, 2010 with their first digital single, "Merry Christmas Na". It was released as a promotional single which made them controversial and at the same time, instant YouTube celebrities. In 2010, 1:43 was originally composed of Anjo Resurreccion, Gold Aquino, Kim Nicolas, and Yuki Sakamoto. Nicolas was then replaced by Argee Golding in 2012. Golding resigned in the band to pursue a career as a pilot and was later replaced by Yheen Valero. The current line-up includes actor and model Art Artienda, Filipino-Chinese ramp, print, and commercial model Ced Miranda, Filipino-American singer and dancer Jason Allen, and Filipino-Canadian dancer and host Wayne Avellano. The revitalized band is likewise psyched to sustain its momentum from snagging the 2013 Star Awards for Music Song of the Year for “Sa Isang Sulyap Mo” and scoring the “Most Promising Performing and Recording Group” recognition in the Guillermo Mendoza Memorial Scholarship Foundation’s 45th Box-Office Entertainment Awards. Aside from the monster hit “Sa Isang Sulyap Mo,” 1:43 also popularized the songs “Hayop Sa Ganda,” “Pag-Ibig na Kaya,” and “Ang Saya-Saya,” which became the official theme song of the GMA-7 sitcom “Ismol Family”. 1:43 is co-managed by Cahilig.
