Climate Battle of the Bands « It’s Getting Hot In Here

C-Change, a new youth-led campaign to change attitudes and raise awareness of climate change in England, has just kicked off with its first major event, a battle of the bands competition. Supported by UK indie band Klaxons and solar-powered recording studio The Premises, unsigned bands can upload an mp3 of their music onto the C-Change website, where anyone and everyone votes for their favourite band. The top five get to play live at a free concert at Party for the Planet in London in July, and the winning band gets to spend a day at The Premises laying down their track by renewable energy.

Head on over to switchonswitchoff.org to vote, and if any It’s Getting Hot In Here UK readers are in a band yourself (and aged 11-21) what are you waiting for? Join the battle!
