Battle of the Bands
Join us for the third annual Battle of the Bands, hosted by Beatdapp — a Vancouver-based music-tech company using AI/ML to combat streaming fraud and champion transparency in the music industry. This is not your average battle: it’s a high-energy convergence of tech and talent, spotlighting both the companies shaping music’s future and the artists defining its sound.
The night kicks off at 6PM with a showcase of “tech bands” featuring teams from Beatdapp, North House, Tipalti, 604 Records, Play MPE, and more — proving that the people behind the platforms can rock just as hard as the artists they support.
Hosted by Dino the Beloved, the evening builds toward the main event: four standout local bands going head-to-head starting at 8PM. Expect various dynamic performances, immersive visuals, and a crowd-voted $5,000 grand prize. The winning act will also earn a performance slot at Railtown Rooftop Party, presented by 604 Records.
Lineup:
Quadra Sound – Classic rock swagger fused with 90s grunge grit and explosive live energy
Post-Modern Connection – Indie rock meets surf and jazz influences, wrapped in smooth, soulful vocals
Small Town Artillery Collective – High-powered six-piece delivering horn-driven riffs, big hooks, and relentless stage energy
TBA – Final contender to be announced
With live visuals, special guests, and a room filled with music lovers and industry insiders, this is a celebration of creativity, community, and cross-industry collaboration you won’t want to miss.
