After an inaugural event that filled the Hard Rock Café to capacity with 500 attendees, 11 bands and jet engine decibel-level cheering volume, ArtsWave is again hosting CincyJams, the region’s workplace battle of the bands competition. They're looking for local companies to compete in the event.
Bands can consist of two or more employees and/or retirees with a third or more members comprised of friends and family. ArtsWave is accepting band signups through April 18. The sign-up form can be found at artswave.org/cincyjams.
CincyJams is ArtsWave’s annual fundraising event, which will be held at 7 p.m. May 18 at Hard Rock Café. DJ Don Juan Fasho will emcee the event, joining an all-new judging panel, including Drew Lachey of 98 Degrees and Patti Collins of the Bootsy Collins Foundation and family.
The "Judges’ Pick" will win a paid performance at “The Road to CMF,” happening July 14, a week before the Cincinnati Music Festival Presented by P&G.
The “Fan Funded” award will go to the band that raises the most money for the annual ArtsWave Campaign. Band members winning that prize will receive tickets to the 2023 Cincinnati Music Festival presented by P&G, headlined in 2023 by Snoop Dogg and Al Green.
The “People’s Choice” award will go to the band with the loudest in-house audience reaction. They will receive chili for a year, compliments of Gold Star Chili, as well as studio time, compliments of Cincinnati Music Accelerator.
CincyJams is supported by Hard Rock Casino, Cincinnati Music Festival presented by P&G, Gold Star Chili, Cincinnati Music Accelerator, Cincinnati Enquirer and Radio One.
