In February 2011, Somedaydream gained mainstream popularity with his first single "Hey Daydreamer" in January 2011 and quickly topped the charts of local radio stations within the Greater Manila Area. His follow-up singles achieved similar success.
His group of fans call themselves "Dreamers" and his official fan club is called "Dreamers Official". The single "Hey Daydreamer" was used in a Selecta Philippines Cornetto commercial.[3]
On 29 November 2011, his 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 on 23 March 2012 at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds.[7][8] "Tuloy" was also performed live during the concert, along with co-collaborators Sarah Geronimo and Gary Valenciano.
