PRINCE’S PAISLEY PARK MUSEUM ANNOUNCES NINE FINALISTS FOR “MUSICOLOGY” BATTLE OF THE BANDS EVENT, SET FOR AUGUST 31st – SEPTEMBER 3rd

CHANHASSEN, MN. (August 22, 2017) – Prince’s Paisley Park in Chanhassen, Minnesota has announced the nine finalists for the special four-day Battle of the Bands event, titled MUSICOLOGY – Summer 2017, to be held August 31st through September 3rd at Paisley Park. The unique live performance event will highlight “Real Music By Real Musicians” – an ethos #Prince consistently championed through his life, creative works and incendiary live performances. The finalists are: Cosmos (Seattle, WA), iLLism (Minneapolis, MN), Pho (Minneapolis, MN), The Nightowls (Austin, TX), Black Alley (Washington, DC), Le’Asha Julius (New York, NY), Anonymous Da Band (Atlanta, GA), Radiochurch (Minneapolis, MN) and Purple Funk Metropolis (Minneapolis, MN). The groups were selected from an open pool of video submissions entered via Paisley Park’s official Facebook page between July 7th – 31st.

Each night between August 31 – September 2, three artists will perform for a live audience at Paisley Park with one winner being selected nightly to advance to the final band battle on Sunday, September 3. Between these three finalists, one artist will be crowned the champion and will receive a unique Artist Development award package, consisting of studio recording time at Paisley Park, a mentorship session with members of Prince’s supergroup New Power Generation, and additional career development opportunities to be announced post competition.
Paisley Park is in your heart

Black Alley won the contest. Kirk, Donna, Chance, Tony, and Damon were the judges. After the contest was over, the "judges" played. They played Erotic City, Kiss, and Deuce and a Quarter. Trevor was wearing the cutest baby on his chest.
