Before YAONA Music became what it is today, YAONA first began in 2025 as a management team for Cebu-based cover groups, organized and founded by Ms. Aeya. The vision during that time was centered on supporting local cover performers and creative collaborations within the Cebu community.
However, in December 2025, the original management officially signed off and the team quietly disbanded due to personal reasons within the management.
Months later, the name “YAONA,” along with this page and its vision, found a new direction.
Today, YAONA is now led by Lean Jomari Paras, also known as LEEYAN — an independent Cebuano P-pop solo artist, performer, and creative visionary.
With permission and trust from Ms. Aeya, Lean officially acquired YAONA and began rebuilding it into something new: a creative movement dedicated to supporting original Cebuano Pinoy Pop music, artistry, and performance.
YAONA is no longer focused on cover groups or individual acts alone. Instead, it now represents a growing creative team built for artists, performers, creatives, and dreamers who believe in original artistry and the future of Cebu entertainment.
For LEEYAN, being independent does not mean working alone.
He believes that while an artist can stand independently, growth becomes stronger when built together with a passionate team of creatives, management, and visionaries who share the same dream.
YAONA is not just a management label.
YAONA is a team.
A home for creativity.
A vision in motion.
Currently, YAONA serves as the independent management and creative team behind LEEYAN — handling his artistic direction, performances, projects, and long-term vision for Cebu P-pop music and artistry.
And this is only the beginning.
LEEYAN believes that Cebu holds incredible potential to become one of the strongest centers of Philippine music and entertainment outside the mainstream industry. Through YAONA, he hopes to help create opportunities, platforms, and projects that will allow Cebuano artists to shine on bigger stages.
Who are we?
We are YAONA.
Independent. Creative. Vision-driven.
Built for the future of Cebu Pop culture. ✨
