CEBU, Philippines - A new batch of Filipino artists with extraordinary voices will take center stage in the highly anticipated Season 2 of Philippine TV’s best vocal competition, “The Voice of the Philippines,” which begins tomorrow, 8:30 p.m. on ABS-CBN.
Back in Season 2 are its quartet of superstar coaches Apl de Ap, Sarah Geronimo, Bamboo, and Lea Salonga, with hosts Luis Manzano, Robi Domingo, Alex Gonzaga, and Toni Gonzaga.
In Season 2, coaches Apl, Sarah, Bamboo, and Lea will have to assemble 14 artists to form a team by the end of the blind auditions. The new season will also introduce the ‘steal,’ which will definitely add spice and excitement to the competition.
During the battle rounds, each coach will have to pit two artists against each other and choose only one that will move on to the next round. If a coach likes an artist, he or she can ‘steal’ the losing artist. If two or more coaches like the losing artist, the artist, just like in the blind auditions, gets to choose which coach or team to transfer to.
Robi and Alex will again serve as the program’s V-Reporters, who will deliver online the latest and most significant updates backstage and behind the camera.
To tease viewers, “The Voice” has released videos of two blind audition performances showing a policewoman belting out “Tukso” and a female rocker singing “What About Love.”
The new season will showcase artists with notably refined artistry representing various fields and ages, including a nurse, a bus vendor, a farmer, a chemist, a Zumba instructor, and a former recording artist.
Who will be part of Team Apl, Team Sarah, Team Bamboo, and Team Lea? Don’t miss the premiere of “The Voice of the Philippines” Season 2 this Sunday. (PR) (FREEMAN)
