The Grand Finals was held at the Ynares Sports Center in Antipolo City on October 22-23, 2011. Twelve acts from the Semi-Finals round performed to win the title of the third Pilipinas Got Talent winner. On October 23, Maasin City’s singing sensation Maasinhon Trio bagged the grand prize on the 3rd Pilipinas Got Talent.
Their rendition of Basil Valdez‘s “Nais Ko” wowed the judges as well as the audience. This performance received the highest number of votes on the country’s number one talent-reality show Pilipinas Got Talent. The group garnered 22.59% of the total text and online votes.
The three used to be members of Menzvoyz Band which has disbanded. They are all soloists and they became barkada after joining several contests. They formed Maasinhon Trio with the encouragement of Fr. Dodong Cordovez and Fr. Sammy Papa. Today, they continue to entertain and play beautiful music on weddings, birthdays and other special occasions in the city, province and wherever they are invited…. Andrew who is the base, plays the guitar very well and Licinio, the tenor plays the keyboard and drums. Both are music composers.
Bonifacio Salubre who works as Fire Officer I of Bureau of Fire Protection, is happily married to Rachiel Cutamora and blessed with two children. Andrew Sanchez is warehouse chief of Southern Leyte Electric Cooperative and Licino Lolo is a supply officer II of the Province of Southern Leyte.
Their powerful voices are harnessed to perfection-blending and complementing one another, yet still ringing clear and pure when showcased alone. Their performance was seen in the grand finals which is seen as specializing in proper blending and not outshining each other.
Maasinhon Trio will be welcomed as the newest kapamilya stars at ASAP Rocks, live this Sunday, November 6, 2011.
