Biography
Semaña attended Fine Arts in the University of the Philippines. He, along with Vinci Montaner, are the only members of Parokya ni Edgar who have earned a bachelor's degree. It is also publicly known that he is one of two band members who didn't attend Ateneo de Manila University, the other member being bassist Buwi Meneses who is lesser known as a non-Atenean graduate. Semaña is a high school alumnus of Ateneo's rival school, De La Salle (Lipa, Batangas campus), which serves as material for many of the band's running jokes in their songs.
Semaña is mostly seen playing a Fender Stratocaster. He is a member of the Tau Gamma Phi fraternity in the Philippines along with band mate Buwi Meneses.
Semaña is married to a make-up artist and they have a son.
