The standard of the bands at this year's final makes this event not only one of the most exciting finals, but one of the toughest to judge.
The winning band plays themselves to some awesome musical gear courtesy of Music Mate (including a Pearl Drum Kit and boss pedals) along with a Wharfedale Pro Rig PA system from Audiosure (the PA system alone is worth R68 000). Bands also get to record at Get Phat Studios in Fourways with Steve Grenfell (Jesse Clegg's engineer) and they have an EPK filmed courtesy of Orange Orbit in Randburg. The winning band will also have a session with music guru Dave Chislett on planning their musical career in 2012 and they will also receive publishing advice from M2 Music.
There is also a diverse range of musical styles on offer covering a wide range of musical styles in English and Afrikaans.
Those attending will hear a mixture of rock, acoustic, electric instrumental, punk, rockabilly and fusion funk jazz.
