Junno. Composer, songwriter, performer. Underground scenesters probably recognize him as the main vocalist and guitarist of indie band Not Informed.

Now, he is set to make a name for himself as one of GMA Records' newest composers.

"Matagal na 'ko sa underground scene. Weird lang kasi 'yung songs namin, sobrang pang-mainstream. Dahan-dahan naa-apreciate na ng mga tao," he says during an exclusive interview with GMANetwork.com

He is currently enrolled in his last term in the College of St. Benilde, taking up music production. This is his second course, having earned a degree related to finance and banking previously.

"I was in the wrong place at that time. And I was just doing it kasi I want to make my parents proud. Graduate ka tapos matino 'yung course mo. In the long run, nilabanan eh. Hinanap talaga ng puso ko, which led me here," he explains.

Junno also shares that out of all the recording artists signed under GMA Records, he's most excited to write songs for Asia's Pop Sweetheart Julie Anne San Jose.

"Galing kumanta niyan eh! 'Tsaka nakakarelate siya sa mga tao. Alam ko bebenta siya," he says.

He adds that he is thrilled to be part of GMA Records.

"Ten years in the making to. 'Yun lang 'yung nasa isip ko. Parang 'yung dream na 'to. Hindi ko talaga in-expect nung high school ako."
