International Music Competition Call for Bands!



The Global Battle of the Bands (GBOB) (www.gbob.com) is heading to the Valve Bar and Venue for the 2012 Sydney Heat!

GBOB is a huge international event with over 30 countries involved. Whoever wins the Australasian Final, will be flown to the World Final, where they will play off for a first prize is worth US$100,000 and the winner’s the title of ‘Best New Band in the World’!

Sydney bands looking for a head start in their music career, and a chance to play on the World Stage, should apply to take part in the Global Battle of the Bands. GBOB is looking for the next Midnight Oil, Rose Tattoo, INXS, Sneaky Sound System or Wolfmother, to continue the city’s history of producing top international acts. Great original bands that have not yet received the recognition they deserve, now have the chance to make it big through GBOB.

The Sydney Heat is on Sun 13 May, commencing at 1pm. It will be a wicked event that should not be missed! Bands wanting to take part in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity need to contact organisers now by emailing redletter@bigpond.com or calling 02 9519 3978.

As well as the trip overseas, there are lots of other great prizes to be won in GBOB. These include GigLaunch subscriptions, FujiFilm cameras and Converse Chuck Taylor shoes…how cool is that?!

Music lovers should make sure they get to the show as well, so they can check out the best bands Sydney has to offer, and support the one they like the most! There will also be cool audience giveaways! It will be exciting to see which group gets through.
