Biography
Bayang Barrios (born Junelie Otero Barrios on June 12, 1968) is a Filipina folk musician, singer-songwriter, teacher, designer, and peace advocate who hails from Bunawan, Agusan del Sur. Born to parents of Manobo origin, Barrios was nicknamed “Bayang” after the first word of the Philippine national anthem, Lupang Hinirang, since she was born on Independence Day (Philippines). Considered as one of the most iconic folk musicians in the Philippines, she initially downplayed her ethnic origins until she met the songwriter-performer Joey Ayala and joined his band, Joey Ayala at ang Bagong Lumad. Many of her known songs, especially those recorded with Ayala, utilized Filipino indigenous instruments. Barrios has received numerous awards, including the Lorenzo Ruiz Award for Music from the Catholic Mass Media Awards in 1997 for her album Bayang Makulay, the Golden Vocalist of Asia Award at a Hanoi music festival in 1999, and the PMPC Best Alternative Album of the Year for her album Biyaya. She performed her self-written song "Malayo Man, Malapit Din" at the 2003 Metropop Song Festival, where she won the Grand Prize. Some of her popular songs are "Bagong Umaga", "Pag Nananalo Ang Ginebra", and "Tadhana", the theme song for GMA Network's television series Encantadia.
