Carlos Balcells is a Filipino bass guitar player, most notable for his work as the bass guitarist of a Filipino "Pinoy Rock" Rock Band The Dawn.[1] He joined the band in 1985 after bassist Clay Luna left for the United States. He has performed on live rock concerts and he has been a part of seven studio albums, one live album and 2 compilation albums released by The Dawn within the 18 years that he was the bassist. The album releases include hit songs like Enveloped Ideas, Salamat, and Iisang Bangka Tayo.
