Either your pads have absorbed a small rock, or are sliding against the caliper. I would pull off the offending side and clean everything with brake clean, then get a bottle of squeak stop and coat the caliper facings that rub go against the pads and a little on the pads too. When that has set up (per instructions) stick them together and reinstall.

I feel the red crc stuff is the best.

Oh...make sure the pads are wearing evenly before doing this. If not, you'll have to diagnose that issue first.

I have also seen an areosol product called sqeak stop you spray right on the brakes. I think it helps remove minor glazing which can cause squeaks or squeals.
