His unique voice, charisma and captivating stage presence, puts him in a league of his own.

He learned to break dance, picked up singing, and television acting. He had the opportunity to be part of an El Paso/Albuquerque musical group called the Borden Gang, where he starred in over 35 TV and radio commercials, with live performances promoting Borden’s dairy products. At the age of 12 he appeared twice on the International Latin TV show Sabado Gigante, and due to his young age, he was a stand-by for Showtime’s “The Mickey Mouse Club”. The young Pando continued his musical ventures singing English and Spanish pop music, with his instrumental cassettes, anywhere possible. Some of his highlights as a young boy are; opening up for Menudo, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis’s, Bobby Ross Avila, Texas Artists; Selena Y Los Dinos, Sunny Ozuna, Joe Posada, and Little Joe.In the late 90’s, BJ Pando continued to sing and tour with various El Paso variety groups.
