  Josh Groban held his second concert in the Philippines, part of his “Bridges” World Tour, last February 22, 2019 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City. Uniquely, the international artist started his long-awaited concert with apologies.

  “I’m so sorry it took me 12 years to get back here. I remember fondly the first time I did a concert here … That and the time my debut album came out. I was told that, outside America, the Philippines was loving it,” Groban told the jam packed crowd in the arena.

  He told his Pinoy audience that it is always a dream to return in the country. “To have an audience so far away from home who appreciates me and my songs, and wanted me to come over … I can’t tell you how much it meant to me then and how much it still means to me now… It has been a dream to finally return here,” he added.

  Josh Groban serenaded the crowd with his well-known songs namely: “You Are Loved,” “Bigger Than Us,” “Pure Imagination,” “She’s Out of My Life,” “Bring Him Home,” and the classic “You Raise Me Up.”
