Darren Espanto surprises ‘Voice PH’ judges with audition song

In a previously unaired clip from the show’s Saturday, December 27 episode, Darren visited the coaches, singing “Domino.” It was the same number he performed for his blind auditions for The Voice Kids.

Darren has a fan in the esteemed singer Lea, who previously mentioned that she felt he was deserving of the Voice Kids victory. 

Bamboo, who recognized Darren’s voice, pretended to give him tips, but in the end  smiled and congratulated him on his success.

After finishing second to Lyca Gairanod on The Voice Kids, Darren released his solo album and performed in two solo shows this year. Watch Darren’s interview with Rappler here.
