The Juans


The Juans (stylized in lowercase) is a Filipino pop rock band based in Bulacan, Philippines. It currently consists of lead vocalist and keyboardist Carl Guevarra, vocalist and lead guitarist Japs Mendoza, vocalist and bassist Chael Adriano, and vocalist and acoustic guitarist RJ Cruz.

History

The Juans was initially categorized as a boy band, but the management team decided to recategorize them as a conventional band. Jiad Arroyo was a founding member, along with Daniel Grospe. Carl Guevarra, Jason de Mesa, and Japs Mendoza joined later.

The band was initially named at a coffee shop shortly after a One Direction concert, where the boys were mulling the British boy band's popularity. They were initially called the D’ Juans, after Juan De La Cruz.

In 2018, The Juans announced the departure of three members, Jiad Arroyo, Jason De Mesa, and Daniel Grospe, as their contract with Viva Records is about to expire.

Before they departed, the band, along with Viva Records, created a miniseries called "We Are The Juans". They had recorded the EP, "Umaga", before the three members left the band. Not so long after, The Juans introduced their new members, RJ Cruz, Chael Adriano, and Joshua Coronel.

They released the single "Dulo" in October 2021.

Their March 2022 album LIWANAG was their first effort with more than two members contributing songs. The album, according to the band, took over a year to complete.

By June 2022, the band announced the departure of drummer Joshua Coronel citing personal reasons.

It was revealed in October 2022 they were recording the theme song for the ABS-CBN series Tara, G!.
