The Blotter staff had a chance to sit down with a member of one of the finalists in the Battle of the Bands competition this weekend. Austin Miller, lead singer of Us, shared his excitement.
“Over 300 tickets have been sold, so I’m really excited!”
At the competition there will be six different bands playing, along with the winners of last year’s competition, Gambit.
“The winning band from last year will be there and they’re playing songs from their new album,” Miller said.
There will be three bands from New Albany; all three will be competing against each other.
“I’m hoping we will do well. Right now we have the highest score at 94%, so I’m pretty exited.”
All ages are welcome and you can buy a ticket in advance for $5, or $7 at the door.
