After Sweetnotes Music’s triumphant tours across the US and Canada, Edren Entertainment LLC is ready to light up the stage again. This time, two electrifying artists unite for a vibrant Pinoy-inspired spectacle. Before the spotlight shines, let’s get to know these performers one by one.
Deserrie Grecia Peliño, or Aera as she’s known today, grew up in a home filled with music and talent. She began singing at the age of four and continued performing throughout college. Her talent, raw energy, and passion helped her face tough times, even when things were difficult for her and her siblings as scholars.
Her triumphs in talent competitions brought more than cheers; they filled her family’s table. Realizing this, Aera decided that venturing overseas as a college freshman, fueled by her talent, determination, and passion, was the right move. There, she joined with the other half of Sweetnotes Music, her beloved ‘Ate Charlotte’.
The connection is evident: Aera is the younger sibling of Charlotte P. Bactong, the other half of the Sweetnotes Music duo.
The experience helped both her and Charlotte grow and improve their skills. Their time there also gave the sisters the chance to help build a permanent home for the Peliño family, ending years of moving from one relative’s house to another.
A CHANCE. A SPRINGBOARD. A CHALLENGE
In 2016, they made their way back to the Philippines, each one lighting up the stage with their own band. Looking back, the Peliño family’s talent feels almost destined, as if music flows through their veins. Whether it is a gift passed down through generations or simply raw passion, their artistry is undeniable.
For those unfamiliar, Aera also took a shot at It’s Showtime’s Tawag Ng Tanghalan. Though she did not make it, the journey was a revelation: sometimes, no matter how hard you try, fate has its own plans. Additionally, Aera continued to pursue her goals and traveled to the Maldives for an additional four years to perform.
By a stroke of luck, Jayheart and his band, The Antidote, happened to be searching for a female vocalist. Thanks to their invitation, Aera not only found a stage to perform on but also a reason to call the island home for the past four years.
But it was in 2024 that Aera was suddenly thrust into the limelight with her rendition of Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just Wanna Have Fun with her band The Secret, on a YouTube Video. Much like her sister’s sudden burst of recognition for Sweetnotes Music via livestreaming, Aera is making a name for herself likewise. Her video with her band, recorded at a well-known restobar in General Santos City, rapidly gained widespread attention online.
From that very video, invitations began to pour in for bookings, performances, guestings, and even interviews.
With the similarity in the sisters’ career paths, some may wonder if there was ever competition between them. Though they are alike, they simply enjoy what they do. In the end, their careers are their own private playgrounds.
MEANWHILE, Jayheart himself is no slouch, having honed his skills through sheer determination. His approach to his art is unconventional, almost like method acting for singers. Jayheart insists he fully transforms into the artist he wants to emulate, channeling not just their voice but their very essence.
Yes, his early days were far from smooth. After college, he spent two years in the BPO industry, only to discover it left him unfulfilled. Yet, in the midst of this uncertainty, he crossed paths with the guitarist who would spark the first notes of his musical adventure. Many times, he tried auditioning, but the odds weren’t just in his favor.
When the right doors refused to open, Jayheart built his own and marched boldly toward fresh opportunities. Fueled by this belief, he began sharing videos of himself online, hoping to catch someone’s attention but mainly for his own viewing pleasure later in life, when he can no longer do what he did in his youth.
As mentioned earlier, his singing improved over the years through learning and channeling his favorite artists, including Queen, Scorpions, Michael Jackson, and The Outfield, among others.
As Jayheart pours his heart into every chord, his love for rock, pop rock, and classic rock echoes in each performance. This fiery devotion is what drew Ogie Diaz’s eye on social media, sparking a discovery that stunned everyone, Jayheart most of all. Even now, he can hardly believe his luck, and he is determined not to let the opportunity from Edren Entertainment LLC slip through his fingers.
Seizing this opportunity, he aspires to electrify audiences in the US with his signature sound and unfiltered stage energy. Something he really hoped and dreamt of for a long time and is finally happening.
Jayheart and Aera will be lighting up stages across the US this 2026, brought to you by Edren Entertainment LLC and executive producer Mr. Edgardo Vera Tividad, and Christopher Dela Cruz’s Onstage Promotions. Mark your calendars and join the excitement.
