Produced by GMA Public Affairs and set to premiere this July 18, To The Top is a twice a week reality-talent development program featuring 18 young and very talented boys that will vie for the chance to become part of GMA's newest boy band.
Helping the program to hone the talents of these 18 boys are some of the county's top performer and artists, starting of with the leader of the pack Maestro Ryan Cayabyab, he will serve as the main judge for the whole competition.
Joining Mr C, are the vocal coaches from one of the country's premier vocal ensemble "The CompanY" Moy Ortiz, Sweet Plantado, and OJ Mariano; next up are the dance coaches, former members of the Philippine All Stars Madelle and Prince Paltu-ob, also part of the dance coaches is Jesse Gotangco who is an international break dancing champion; last but definitely not the least among the mentors are the Sound Squad of musical arrangers and sound engineers led by Jonathan Ong, Chino David, Chrisantony Vinzons, and Brian Lotho from the Sonic State Studio.
To The Top's process of picking up their contestants is far from the common open audition, they hand picked and invited the best vocals from different schools and organizations to try their luck to get in the top 18.
To The Top already began airing last June 25 on GMA's website www.gmanetwork.com/tothetop, the program's webisodes are hosted by Julian Trono, the audition process and the first few sneak peek of what's going on with the aspiring talented boys in their journey going To The Top.
After series of auditions, the program announced its 25 finalist, which were later cutted down to 14. Adding a twist the management launched an online wildcard voting for the netizens to decide who among the 11 eliminated contestants will be part of the Top 18.
