Bodog Battle of the Bands: 1$ Million Battle to end all Battles
New York - fuse, the national music television network, and Bodog Music, the groundbreaking international record label, have announced that Bodog Music Battle of the Bands will premiere on fuse on July 11 at 10pm ET. The hour-long, ten episode series is based on Bodog Music’s $1 Million Battle of the Bands.
Bodog Music Battle of the Bands provides viewers with a candid behind-the-scenes look at a nationwide music tour and all the talent, competition, and downright insanity that accompanies it. Ten very different bands from ten different backgrounds will converge to bring some of the rawest reality and most intense live performances ever shown on television.
“Bodog Music Battle of the Bands is not your everyday talent show,” said Calvin Ayre, Founder of the Bodog Entertainment Group. “We put these bands through some pretty intense competition. Audience votes, coupled with judging on performance, image, songwriting, work ethic, networking, and the ability to self promote, will land the top bands in the finals. The band that wins gets massive internet fan support, combined with fuse’s on-air exposure and Bodog Music’s international marketing push. It’s the chance of a lifetime.”
The series is the culmination of competition that started in March 2006 when more than 7,000 music bands registered online, all vying for internet votes. The winners landed spots at one of the 350-plus live shows hosted by Bodog Music in 17 cities across the United States which narrowed the group to 17, then 10 and ultimately one incredible act.
“You put 10 different bands on the road together for a few weeks, throw the craziest punk judges into the mix and it’s guaranteed to be a long, strange trip,” says Ayre. “The series on fuse is going to make for some incredible performances and some great TV.”
Each episode features live performances from the competing bands and criticisms and praises brought to them by the panel of expert talent judges that feature Johnny Rotten (Sex Pistols/Public Image Limited), Billy Duffy of The Cult, and Punk Goddess, Bodog Music recording Artist Bif Naked. Tour manager Stryker (co-host of syndicated radio show Loveline ) guides the bands through their experience along with a crew of celebrities who mentor the musicians on their path to a $1-million grand prize and live on air finale.
“fuse truly cares about music fans, so this show was a logical fit as these bands battle it out by traveling through America’s great music cities,” said Andy Meyer, director of development and original series, fuse. “The series provides an entertaining look at the drama and tensions that occur within bands on the verge of stardom, and the stress of living and performing on the road. We are excited to have the opportunity to bring this show to fuse viewers.”
