How Will It Be Decided Which Band Will Get Out of the Garage?

Bands can submit for free, courtesy of Converse. In mid-November, all eligible bands (see rules for details) will be added to a round of public voting at http://getoutofthegarage.sonicbids.com, where their band’s information will be posted and the fans will decide which bands will move on to the judging round.


The Top 100 bands will move on and be reviewed by a panel of music industry judges. These judges will select the Top 10 bands who will move on to the final voting round in January, during which the fans will determine the Grand Prize Winner of the Get Out of the Garage Contest.


Please note: All bands must have five members or less; all band members must be 13 years of age or older; and legal residents of one of the 50 United States or the District of Columbia in order to be eligible. If a minor enters and wins, they must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all times. No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited. Some restrictions apply.
