Timmy Pavino\u2019s name was an overnight household sensation when he became top 8 finalist at ABS-CBN\u2019s The Voice of The Philippines (TVOP) Season 2, under Team Lea (Salonga). With his voice as smooth as silk, Timmy\u2019s take on various covers, both OPM and international billboard ditties, has etched versatility without losing his vocal identity as\u00a0 premier pop balladeer. He takes no qualms about being compared to other TVOP Season 2 co-alumni Jason Dy (grand prize winner), Daryl Ong, etc. who are being branded as pop R&amp;B sensations. Timmy takes so much pride and joy in sharing his own gift of music without competing or comparing himself to anyone. For him, there is always room for everyone to excel in. He\u2019s always grounded and generous with praises for other young artists. Such a rare trait in this time and age.<\/p>\n<p>Timmy or \u201cTim\u201d undeniably continues to shine in Philippine radio\/television and high profile live music concerts. When \u201cMr. Energy\u201d superstar himself, Gary Valenciano, mounted a 2-night major concerts entitled \u201cGary V Presents\u201d at the Kia Theatre earlier this month, Timmy was amongst Gary V\u2019s specially handpicked co-performers. \u201cPerforming with Tito Gary on one stage was my ultimate lifelong aspiration ever since I started performing as a young kid. It was a dream come true for me and I\u2019m forever grateful to him and to Tita Angeli (n\u00e9e Pangilinan, Gary V\u2019s wife) for allowing me the rare opportunity. It was one magical, unforgettable moment of my life that I will never forget\u201d, Timmy gushed all over his social media accounts.<\/p>\n<p>Another significant feather to his cap was performing alongside a stellar cast of seasoned artists (Gary V, Kyla, Janno Gibbs, Jaya, etc.) at \u201cInstant Concert 3 in 1 \u2014 Mga Awit Nila De Pano, Marcelo at Simon\u201d at the Music Museum on July 14, 2016. These are 3 highly acclaimed contemporary inspirational songwriters \u2014 N. Arnel de Pano (Lead Me, Lord; Lipad Ng Pangarap, etc.), Urban Music\/PhilPop 2013 Awardee Jungee Marcelo (Bespren, Say Yahweh, etc.) and Elzar \u201cDodjie\u201d Simon of Papuri Song Festival fame. De Pano gave a touching introduction to Timmy before performing, \u201cLipad Ng Pangarap\u201d. A song De Pano penned in honor of all Filipino household helpers working overseas to support their families back home. Timmy has already sung that song many times before. But performing it all over again at the concert has given him deeper connection to the meaning of the song.<\/p>\n<p>Currently touted as \u201cPrince of the New OPM\u201d, Timmy is managed by Stages Production Specialists and under StarMusic recording label. His first self-titled album has just been released and he will be touring Canada and the USA to promote it starting July 24 (Chapel of St. Mary, Portland, OR), July 30 (Meydenbauer, Bellevue WA), August 4 (Burnaby BC), August 6 (Mississauga ON) and August 7 (Victoria BC).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vancouver, B.C. \u2014 There is no stopping to attaining superstardom (yes, read this writer\u2019s lips: this young lad will become &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":44,"featured_media":78977,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-78976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment-ph","mauthors-socorro-babes-newland","mauthors-philippine-canadian-inquirer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/44"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78976\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78977"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
