YLONA GARCIA Does “Don’t Go Changing” Under 88rising

I've seen her in the country and all I thought of while hearing her sing is that, she's severely underrated. She deserves an international audience and she's about to get it. Sydney based Ylona Garcia just released her single "Don't Go Changing" under American music company 88rising. This song was produced by Jonas Jeberg (who also did songs for Panic! At the Disco, Demi Lovato, The Jonas Brothers, Selena Gomez) and Marcus Lomax (who did songs for Justin Bieber, Maroon 5, Miley Cyrus0. Listening to it this evening had me put myself in a trance with a late night chill song. The lyrics though tell a story on how to grieve and showcase the different stages of letting go, something that hopeless romantics, people who fall in love intensely could easily relate with.

This is part of 88rising's efforts to bring artists from the East to West and it will be part of Head In The Clouds III which will be their third installment. Ylona says "This song simply embraces the truth in life's many mysteries. It talks about tough love." HITC3 by the way will be out on digital stores come first quarter of 2022. The video is directed by Louis Browne who also did work for artists like Jack Newsome, Ellie Goulding (whom I love in ehterial dance tracks!) and Rich Brian. The video (which is on YouTube already) shows a more mature, sultry side of her. Done quite nice, I could see how she's going places with this attempt.

I guess Ylona is going to be destined for an international career, and by the looks of it... she's doing quite good! Congratulations girl, you're going to be BIG!

Ylona Garcia Outs New Single "ALL THAT"

Oooh this is interesting! Now I have seen her perform live, on TV, and even got to talk to her a couple of times during events. Ylona Garcia comes off as a very smart, intelligent, passionate lady. She's destined for greatness and hearing her new single "ALL THAT" this afternoon just made me shake my head a bit why she isn't in Hollywood or some other place greater because she's dang good in what she's doing now. 

ALL THAT reminds us of the horrible things we had in 2020, and why it's okay to actually leave those things behind. Picking up what's left of us and do more things, we're due for good, better things and we should be doing things towards that goal, NOW.

This is officially her debut single under PARADISE RISING, which is  a sister label of 88rising which is formed with their partnership with Globe. Under them, Ylona wishes to expand more of her music to a global audience. From the looks of it, they're not going to disappoint people because it honestly sounds so good. No wonder why she's gotten Gold a few years ago (when she was only 18). Paradise Rising is also focused on bringing Filipino talent on a global scale. She's perfect for this! 

She says "This song is a good reminder that you should be kinder and have a better your relationship with yourself. It gets you to have better relationships with people around you. You would need to leave all the toxicity behind, then start anew. It's how you could commit and find that new you!" and I totally agree.

To know more where this is heading, go check out PARADISE RISING on Facebook, IG and Twitter. They're good, and they're going places! Congrats Ylona!
