Sofronio moved to the U.S. in 2023 to follow his dream of being a musician. His story is one of hard work and love for music, even though he started with very little and had a job in dentistry. He was rejected by “The Voice of the Philippines” nearly ten years ago and then turned all four chairs during his blind audition for The Voice US. His path shows just how talented and determined he is.
