Sunderland University musicians wanted for This Is Tomorrow ‘Battle of the Bands’ contest

The University of Sunderland is looking for a support act to open Stage 2 at the This Is Tomorrow festival on May 24, 2019.

To qualify, the band must include at least one Sunderland student, graduate, or member of staff.

Entrants must submit a link to a 30-60 second video of their band playing to events@sunderland.ac.uk by midnight on 7 April. A team of judges will choose four bands to go head to head at the Battle of the Bands night at CitySpace on 1 May.
