Biography
2011–present: Somedaydream
In February 2011, Somedaydream gained mainstream popularity with his first single "Hey Daydreamer", which quickly topped the charts of local radio stations within the Greater Manila Area. His follow-up singles achieved similar success.
Somedaydream's group of fans call themselves "Dreamers" and his official fan club is called "Dreamers Official". The single "Hey Daydreamer" was used in a Selecta Cornetto commercial.[3]
On 29 November 2011, Somedaydream's self-titled debut album Somedaydream was released.[4]
In March 2012, Somedaydream collaborated with Sarah Geronimo and Gary Valenciano for "Tuloy", a song now used as Coca-Cola's 100th Anniversary theme song in the Philippines.[5][6] Also as part of the anniversary, Somedaydream, along with other artists, performed at the Coca-Cola Concert Ng Bayan, held on 23 March 2012 at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds.[7][8] Somedaydream performed "Tuloy" live during the concert with collaborators Sarah Geronimo and Gary Valenciano.
Following the success of his debut album, Toledo co-founded 2 independent brands: Futurestudio, a record label, and Logiclub, an artist/producer collective management outfit. He later began collaborating with former General Luna vocalist Nicole Asensio on their collaborative album, in partnership with MCA Music and D5 Studio Originals.
