Battle of the Bands set for March 31 at community center

FALLBROOK – It doesn’t matter if a band plays at parties, dances, or just in a garage; the Fallbrook Community Center’s Battle of the Bands on March 31 is open to all bands with members between 13 and 19 years of age. If selected, the bands will set up, perform and battle it out for a $200 first place cash award, trophies, other donated prizes and bragging rights!

This year’s Battle of the Bands will also have a “Peoples Choice” award. Everyone attending will have an opportunity to vote for their favorite band. The band with the most votes will receive a trophy and $1 for each vote.

This is not an air band, karaoke, or lip synch contest; this is the real deal. Bands must have three or more members that actually sing and/or play instruments. A completed application, band photo, and CD with at least three tunes must be submitted to the community center office by 5:30 p.m. on March 16. The top bands will be invited to perform in front of an audience and be rated by a panel of judges on March 31.

The Battle of the Bands is sponsored by Friends of Fallbrook Community Center, County of San Diego Parks and Recreation and Fallbrook/Bonsall Village News. For applications and information email [email protected], contact the Community Center at (760) 728-1671 or stop by the office at 341 Heald Lane, Monday through Friday between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
