MANILA -- After 11 successful seasons, Filipino singer-songwriter and OPM rock band vocalist Bamboo is back for the newest season of "The Voice Teens" Philippines.

“It feels good. It’s another round of it. It’s a time to mentor and, I guess, to meet a new batch of new artists. It’s always fun. Better than the last season I felt,” he said in an interview with ABS-CBN News. 

“Kasi parang last season was more like getting back on it after such a long break and then there are new coaches. But now, it feels a little more comfortable," he added. 

Gearing for his coaching assignment, OPM singer reveals some criteria he is looking for teens to be part of his Kamp Kawayan.

“I was very specific. I was looking specifically for parang from my best. I’m trying to get na parang pulse na, ‘Okay this could be an artist’. Parang ang vision ko is like kids just playing a piano during the battles, playing guitars, multi-instruments. I’m looking for that energy. That’s always been sort of what I’ve wanted for Kamp Kawayan,” he said.
