Junelie Otero Barrios (born on June 12, 1968, to parents of Manobo origin),[1] professionally known as Bayang Barrios, is a Filipina pop musician and singer who hails from Bunawan, Agusan del Sur. She once downplayed her ethnic origins, until she met the songwriter-performer Joey Ayala and joined his band, Ang Bagong Lumad. Many of her known songs, especially those recorded with Ayala, utilized Filipino indigenous instruments.

In 2005, Barrios' composition "Isipin Mo Na Lang" penned with her husband Mike Villegas, played at the ending credits of the indie Filipino film Ang Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros. September 2013 saw the release of her fifth studio album entitled Malaya.[2]
