Battle of the Bands is a UH competition series. It gives bands the opportunity for exposure, experience, and a chance to win big this summer!

Union Hall is calling all local musicians, for a chance to win big this summer! Compete in the local Battle of the Bands competition for a chance to win a professionally produced video with audio, and the opportunity to headline your own show at Union Hall!

The first round of the competition will take place this Saturday, January 18 from 8pm – midnight. Featuring Micah Madore, Mox Lead, and Chasm Deep.

The competition consists of four Battle of the Band nights with three to four bands competing each night! Winners will take home 75% of ticket sales for that night and then compete in a final round for the grand prize.

The Rules:

Four bands will play four songs each and will be judged based upon:

  1. Their ability to draw a crowd (each audience member will select an act that brought them to Union Hall or one that they are interested in seeing perform)
  2. The quality of their music (determined by professional musicians in the audience)
  3. Audience engagement (determined by Union Hall staff)

Each band will be given just four days to prepare and to market themselves. Marketing begins at 7pm on January 14 and ends when the show starts at 7pm on January 18. The winner will receive 75% of all ticket sales for the night plus a paid performance at Union Hall. All bands will receive audio and video recordings of their performances to use as promotional materials.
