In the aftermath of season 2 of “America’s
Got Talent: The Champions” on NBC, the US and possibly much of the world would
already know the name of Marcelito Pomoy. While the season 2 champion of “Pilipinas
Got Talent” on ABS-CBN in 2011 did not win or place in the Top 3, he has
already cemented a solid fan following thanks to his rare falsetto range that
has gotten rave reviews for helping him do one-man duets. Pomoy himself is not
that broken up about not becoming “world champion” for “Got Talent,” but it is
just as well; he is busy enough with touring anyway.
According to The Philippine Star, Marcelito Pomoy is making preparations to go
on a good long concert tour across the US in the middle of this year. Titled “The
Voices of Marcelito,” the tour will quite obviously feature his falsetto voice
in a variety of songs sung anywhere from male, to female soprano, to dual-tone
for one-man duets. Pomoy announced the concert tour on his official Instagram
page, where 13 American cities have been listed as his stops from June to
August. In the comments Marcelito expressed his extreme gratitude for how
quickly the tour was put together for him.
With Marcelito on his musical
journey will be Joel Sebag, musical director and pianist specializing in
inspirational playing. Concert stops include Tampa and Miami in Florida, four
cities in California (San Diego, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Cabazon), New
York, Washington DC and much more.
Pomoy also noted in another post that a video of his non-competition final performance on the finale of “America’s Got Talent: The Champions” season 2 has become number 1 trending on YouTube. This was his collaborative rendition of “We Are the Champions” by Queen, alongside fellow finalists Hans (singer), Boogie Storm (dance group), Russian Bar (acrobats) and Duo Transcend (trapeze artists). Said video, on the Talent Recap channel, now counts over 3 million views and some 53,000 likes in stats. Marcelito would ultimately finish at 4th place (3rd runner-up) in the competition, V.Unbeatable, an acrobatic dance group hailing from India, being named the grand champion(s).
