Sa early release nitong Biyernes, Setyembre 17, sa muling pagbabalik ng The Voice US, three-chair turner ang Filipino nurse na si Vaugn Siangco Mugol sa blind auditions ng kompetisyon.
Kinanta ng frontliner ang hit song ni Ed Sheeran na “The A Team” na kaagad nagpaikot kay voice coaches Kelly Clarkson at John Legend sa loob ng 18 seconds.
Hindi rin nagtagal ay nakumbinsi ang newly-installed coach na si Ariana Grande na umikot rin para kay Vaugn.
"I love the little break in your voice. I love the fuller parts of your voice,"panimula ni Ariana para kumbinsihin ang artist.
Pagbabahagi ni Vaugn, ang pagsali sa kompetisyon ay bagong karanasan para sa kanya.
“This is actually new to me. I am a registered voice. I usually just sing to my patients,” nakangiting pagsasalaysay ni Vaughn.
“I felt what you did required a lot of seasoning that I wouldn’t expect from someone that doesn’t perform on big stages,” komento ni John sa artist
“I would love to have you in Team Legend,” dagdag ng “All of Me” singer-songwriter.
“The precision of you like not losing your breath and going off-pitch, that takes a lot more technique,” komento naman ni Kelly kay Vaughn.
Muli namang nagsalita si Ariana para kumbinsihin ang artist na sumama sa kanyang team.
“I know that I am new here and you guys don't know me as a coach yet but I want to guide you in this competition. I want to help you sing the right songs. I want to answer any questions that you have regarding my experiences and help you where you want to go as an artist.”
Si Vaugn ay nag-aral ng Nursing sa San Beda University at kasalukuyang nakabase at nagtatrabaho sa Houston, Texas.
Sa pag-uulat nasa 670,084 views na ang early release blind audition at trending sa Youtube music category.
Inulan din ng pagbati mula sa mga Pilipinong kaibigan at kapamilya ang Facebook account ni Vhong.
Mapapanuod ang bagong edition ng The Voice US sa NBC channel simula Setymebre 20.
