"Buscando Mi Ritmo," Telemundo's music competition that premiered last Saturday July 19, was full of stars, excitement and many surprises. Hosted by Gaby Espino, with Erika Ender and Humberto "El Gato' Rodríguez as judges, the four contestants (Tali Duclaud, Eli Jas, José Guillermo Cortines and Lino Martone), the four music bands (Odas, Los Hollywood, Avenida Zero and Bachaco), were guided by award-winning singer-songwriter Kany García, who served as mentor and performed samples of the songs that participants executed at the end of the final challenge.
During the first competition of "Buscando Mi Ritmo," known as "Do de Pecho,' contestants competed to pick a song by Kany, they wished to perform. In this challenge, Lino Martone won and received $2,000 for his charity of choice, St. Jude's Children's Hospital.
