Get ready for the most exciting musical showdown of the year! The Stray is thrilled to present Season III of our "Battle of the Bands" event, taking place EVERY SATURDAY in March. Each Saturday night, five talented bands will compete for a chance to shine in the finals, on March 30, where they will have the opportunity to showcase their full-length set. Finalists will be determined through a combination of popular votes and the discerning judgment of a guest panel of local music industry professionals. Guest judges Jake Rye, Robby Fischer, John Sinkevics, Meghan Wilcox, & Jennifer Hudson-Prenkert have been carefully selected for their extensive experience and invaluable contributions to the local music scene. The winner and finalists will receive large cash prizes and sponsor giveaways, but all competing bands are paid for their performance. Even at Battle of the Bands, we believe collaboration is greater than competition. The ultimate goal of this event is to create an exciting performance opportunity where artists can network, grow, and be paid for their craft! Get tickets at thestraycafe.ticketleap.com.
Doors Open: 5:45 // Event Starts: 6:30
In addition to our craft beer, coffee and wine selection, our kitchen will be open serving our full dinner menu until 9pm! Get here early to snag your favorite seat and grab a bite to eat before the show begins. Seating is limited.
MARCH 9: Night Two (OPENING ROUND)
