I have always wanted to check out Battle of the Bands. If you haven't gathered it yet, I love music! And that is all the Battle is... music!

This year was a good one for me, not only did I get to check out the Battle, I got to emcee it!

Things got start with Beyond City Walls. Watch out for these guys. They are a mix of rock and pop with a lot of synthesized keys... hope to see them there next year.

Breath Worship (from Victory Baptist in Newmarket) made an appearance as well bringing some Praise and Worship to the mix.

A rap artist named D.U.T.Y hit the stage next with a smoking performance... the crowed went nuts!


Other acts to note were Maxacka, who sound like Petra and a band called Without Surrender who came second last year and would come in second this year!

During intermission it was clear who would win. Every person I talked to loved one act... of rap.

After a terrific performance from To Tell it was time to give away some recording time at Broken Records and a performance spot at Kingdom Bound. The winner was D.U.T.Y.
Be listening for an interview with him on LIFE in the coming months!

Hat's off to Barrie Free Methodist for a great light show and amazing music show! Check it out next year. It's a lot of fun!

  2. Friends and I went last year and it was a lot of fun! We ended up making a weekend trip out of it so there were lots of good memories from it and Manafest was the guest judge that year. Good times!

  3. D.u.t.y. was definitely a shoo-in from the moment he stepped on stage. So excited he won :)
