Soundclash Show Battle
This is probably the coolest music battle I’ve heard of.
So it’s not like a normal battle of the bands-these bands are established. But I do wish all battles went like this. Also I have an innate love of Shiny Toy Guns. Well at least their first album…
And it’s from Red Bull? Hm I guess they do cool things…
On Sunday, November 14 at Atlanta’s iconic concert venue, The Tabernacle, legendary hip-hop crew The Roots and indie rock band Shiny Toy Guns will be positioned on opposite stages giving the crowd the best seat in the house – smack-dab in the middle. In a series of four rounds, the bands perform various tasks—some rehearsed, some improvised—to showcase the range of their musical abilities.
The Cover – This round will feature each band playing their own take on the same cover song
The Takeover – A collaborative round where one band will start to play one of their original tunes and the other band will have to take over the second half on cue and finish it in their own style, and vice versa
The Clash – This will challenge the band’s versatility as they’ll have to adapt their songs to the music genre the DJ is spinning
The Wild Card – Each band will pick an artist of their choice to join them on stage and be a part of the performance
