Macleay Valley Battle of The Bands

Oddfellows Hall set the stage Friday, September 12th for the Macleay Valley Battle of The Bands in an epic showcase of some of the best in local talent. 5 acts threw down in a stunning display, traversing genres of Hip Hop, Metal and Rock, with one crowd favourite emerging by a cast of two votes!

Coffs Harbour Stoner Rock band Autopilot took out the coveted number 1 place, and the prize pool of $2500, with their stellar performance, curated of both original music and cover songs.

The judges choice award went to L.I.J in his hometown of Kempsey following a punchy exhibition of Hip Hop. 

Notable mentions to all of the artists from the night, Yung $pex, TormenT and Tom Dixko. The level of talent and visionary from each of these artists was extraordinary and of an elite level.

A massive thanks to The Music Zoo and Red Cedar Records for presenting this amazing initiative within the Macleay Valley and for holding it down. A huge thank you for having us along to help judge the event alongside Ghostattack from RAH! Records and Richard Evans.
