Sofronio Vasquez’s career took a significant turn when he clinched victory on season 26 of The Voice in December 2024.
This momentous win made him the first Filipino artist to earn the top title on the U.S. edition of The Voice, while also marking Michael Bublé’s first success as a coach on the show.
During the finale, Bublé extolled Vasquez’s achievement, saying, “My Filipino brother, you are the hope of so many people … it has been such an unbelievable journey. I’m just so happy for you.”
Before his rise to fame, Vasquez was on the path to becoming a dentist. However, the death of his father—the person who kindled his passion for music—prompted him to pursue his dreams. He then moved to the United States to carve out a career in music.
As the season 26 champion, Vasquez earned a $100,000 cash prize and a recording contract. Since then, he has been active in the music scene, collaborating with Bublé on new projects, including his upcoming song “Superman,” which he is set to perform during the season 28 finale of The Voice.

Reflecting on his experiences, Vasquez noted, “Those international shows taught me so much. Music really does cross every boundary you can think of.”
He elaborated, “I’ve watched people who don’t speak English connect emotionally with a song, and that’s powerful. Every country, every audience has given me something different.”
