The force was with The Revelators in this Band War.
Amidst light-sabers and Darth Vader masks, The Revelators rocked its way to a first place finish Friday night against a very competitive lineup of musicians.
This year’s Battle of the Bands, themed after the “Star Wars” movies, had eight student bands battling for a good crowd reaction and a high score from the judges who would later determine who got the grand prize: a $500 Guitar Center gift card. No two bands sounded alike, and the diversity of the battle’s acts–electronic, country, and surf among others, kept the crowd interested and the energy high for the entire show.
