Saturday, June 12. So far, over 800 bands from eight cities entered the music

slots in Detroit as part of the contest process.

Angeles based quintet are currently the focus of major national industry buzz,
and according to LA Weekly, ‘poised to coax hard rock from its
corporate slumber.”

thumpin' grooves and balls-out punk intensity. With smoking showcases at the
prestigious SXSW music conference, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame under

independently released CD "Scratch.” Recently, the band’s single
