Rock 95's Home Grown Battle of the Bands

Rock 95 is turning up the volume with Gussapolooza Music Fest and Known Accomplice Records to launch the Rock 95 Home Grown Battle of the Bands — and we want YOU on stage.

Before bands like Bleeker, Grant Boyer, and Feral Minks hit the stage, we’re giving the mic to local rockers ready to shake the ground.

Think your band has what it takes?

We’re looking for raw, real, homegrown talent to kick off the fest in style. If you're in a local band hungry for the spotlight — this is your shot.

Compete for a wicked Battle of the Bands prize package:

🎶 Radio play on Rock 95
🎤 A performance slot at Gussapolooza 2026
🎸 An opening set at a Rock 95–presented concert
🎧 An exclusive consultation with the team behind The Trews and Sam Roberts Band at Known Accomplice Records
