Do you and your band make beautiful music together?
TSTC is holding it’s first annual Battle of the Bands on Nov. 19. The contest is open to all rock bands including both English and Spanish language.
Groups will be required to perform one original song, a cover song of the band’s choice and a song chosen by TSTC’s list of music. The TSTC choice will be of a different genre of music.
TSTC officials said that groups will be judged on originality, band organization/unity, professionalism, stage presence/showmanship, cover song creativity and time limit.
The first place prize is $500 and the chance to open for a nationally known band that is yet to be determined. The Second place prize is $300 and Third place prize is $200. A people’s choice award trophy will be awarded to the most popular band.
Groups will also be allowed to see merchandise ad the event. Bands must register in person at the TSTC Studen Life Office and pay a registration fee of $50. For more information call 956-364-4304. The deadline for registration is Nov. 6.
The event will begin at 4 p.m. and will be held at the TSTC Student Quad.
