about
Jay-R is the most promising male RnB phenomenon that ever hit the local music scene. Gaudencio A. Sillona III, popularly known as Jay-R, was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. He was 2nd year college, taking up Computer Engineering, in Devry University in L.A. when he decided to come here and fulfill his dream... to become a singer. He was once a part of a group named FI (First Impression). The group consisted of 5 guys namely: Mike Gabriel, Alex Bacani, Jayr Sillona, Jimmy Martinez (who came with Jay-R to Manila) and Owen Amurao. When Mike, Owen and Alex went their separate ways, Jay-R and Jimmy continued the group by adding another talented singer named Kris Cadevida. They would do gigs in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Michigan. Jay-R also belonged to a band that was lead by his Uncle, Robert Sillona. The band was called The Howlers. Being part of his uncle’s band was a huge part in Jay-R’s career... it taught him the ways of the stage! He is currently signed under Universal Records. His first album, aptly titled ‘Game Face’, has 12 tracks on it, containing 2 original Tagalog songs: “Kaibigan”, written by his sister, Jhing Sillona; and “Bakit Pa Ba?” written by Vehnee Saturno. Most of the other songs on the album are RnB. He writes and produces his own songs. His first single “Design for Love” is a hip-hop/ RnB single that exhibits Jay-R’s amazing talent in singing and dancing. Here are other facts: Height: 5’10’’ Weight: 165 lbs.
