'ERUPTION!' was launched in 2016 to stimulate interest in grassroots music within the Grampian area: together with your help, we intend to continue showcasing just how deep and diverse the local talent pool is.
Every participating band gets a 30 minute set to impress our carefully chosen judges, who will be scoring the performances across five different categories (Material, Performance, Technical Ability, Audience Engagement and Professionalism).
Music - is of course - subjective, but we’ll endeavour to ensure that the judges are independent and objective.
You can expect the winners of ERUPTION to be announced around 30 minutes after the last band finish playing - so probably around 11.30pm.
