Leona, a new band signed under Universal Records Philippines, has released a catchy song titled “Kahit Saan,” which embodies the joy of spending the day together, embracing the beauty of every shared moment.

Comprising a talented group of musicians, Ken Tiongson (Vocalist/Rhythm Guitarist), Faith Angelyn Garcia (Vocalist), Clyde Manuel Amoranto (Lead Guitarist), Jake Lorenz Nicolas (Drummer), and John Ace Lorenzo Gatuz (Bassist), Leona brings a unique blend of energy, creativity, and musical prowess to the table. The band is set to captivate audiences with their enchanting melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and exhilarating performances.

 

 

When asked why they decided to name their band Leona, the Bulacan-based pop-rock outfit shares “Obviously, Leona is someone’s name. It is because we created a persona that is eager and is willing to give their all for their dreams. “Leona” is soft to the ears, but effortlessly reflects prowling prowess. And we feel like ganon kami. Like whatever happens, we will continue to make music and have it known. We will proudly perform just like how a lion proudly roars.”

“Kahit Saan” is a delightful exploration of togetherness. The song paints a vivid picture of couples or friends sharing unforgettable experiences as they journey through various locations, unearthing the magic in each moment. It celebrates the simple joy of being together, whether it’s a sunrise on a beach, an impromptu road trip, or a quiet moment under the stars. Indeed, “Kahit Saan” effortlessly exudes a chill, laid-back vibe that reflects the warmth of love and friendship.

The band said that they started writing the song during summer of 2022. They recall “After ng gig usually pumupunta kami sa bahay nila Clyde para mag bonding and syempre mag song writing. Then habang nagsusulat kami, naisip namin na what if hindi naman heart break song i-sulat namin? After brainstorming, we came up sa concept na very chill lang, about sa loved ones and tropa para pang masa pa rin yung song.”

Since their previous releases are about heartbreaks and sadness, they are expecting for their listeners to have a refreshing experience listening to “Kahit Saan”. 

“’Kahit Saan’ is a happy love song naman. Magaan and upbeat. Super excited na kaming marinig nila ‘to kasi we think they’ll love this song as much as we do! ~LEONA hindi na umiiyak era~. (char) Sana ma-LSS sila lalo sa mga mahilig magroadtrip! HAHA,” the band happily tells with much excitement.

Leona’s soulful vocals, catchy hooks, and impeccable instrumentation create an irresistible blend that is sure to resonate with listeners of all ages. With “Kahit Saan,” Leona invites you to rediscover the magic of togetherness and appreciate every place and moment life has to offer.

LYRICS:

Kahit Saan by Leona

 

Verse 1:

Teka lang pwede mo ba akong samahang mamasyal

gagala, kain, at kwentuhan. 

 

Sabay nating pagmamasdan ang pagsinag ng buwan

at kukuhanan ng larawan

 

Pre-Chorus: 

Teka lang!

Ang bilis ng oras

Pwede ba tayo hanggang bukas?

 

Chorus:

Dadalhin kahit sa’n magpunta

‘Di magiisa, basta’t nandoon ka- 

-hit tayo lang dalawa’y

Magkahawak kamay ‘pag bukang liwayway

 

Verse 2:

Bakit sobrang mong ganda kapag tinitignan kita 

Hinding hindi nakakasawa

 

Ikaw palagi ang nandyan sayo ko lang naramdaman

Hinding hindi ka iiwanan

 

Pre Chorus: 

Teka lang!

Ang bilis ng oras

Pwede ba tayo hanggang bukas?

 

Chorus:

Dadalhin kahit sa’n magpunta

‘Di magiisa, basta’t nandoon ka- 

-hit tayo lang dalawa’y

Magkahawak kamay ‘pag bukang liwayway

 

Bridge (instrumental)

Repeat Chorus

 

Outro:

Teka lang pwede mo ba akong samahang mamasyal

gagala, kain, at kwentuhan.
