The fifth annual Satellite Battle of the Bands proved to be another sold-out show Saturday night at the Cain’s Ballroom.
The show featured six of Tulsa’s most talented high school-aged bands: Restless Ribbon of Edison, Keyless Entry of Holland Hall, Feedback from Riverfield Country Day School, Abeo Cygnus of Jenks and Bixby high schools,Lupercus from Booker T.Washington and The Fiascos of Memorial. They battled it out for cash and prizes, while last year’s winner, Here is There, closed out the show.
Judges for the event included Tulsa World music writer Jennifer Chancellor, assistant Spot editor Billy Berkenbile, singer/songwriter Danelle Phillips, rapper P.D.A. and local music man and promoter Matt Lip.
This annual event is conceived, planned and manned by the students of Satellite, who spend the better part of a year organizing the family-friendly event. From marketing to advertising the show to writing about and photographing the bands, the student journalists are responsible for the entire production. |
