ChanJam’11: Battle of Local High School Bands

ChanJam ‘11, the annual battle of youth bands, returns Friday, Nov. 18. The public is invited to attend the music event which invites bands from Chanhassen, Chaska and Minnetonka high schools.

Last March, The Hub, from Minnetonka High School won top prize.

ChanJam takes place at Chanhassen High School Auditorium. Winning bands will be determined by a panel of judges based on stage presence, musicianship, soloists/singers, and audience re-action. Prizes awarded include trophies, recording studio time, a gig at the Minnesota State Fair, guitar and rock camp scholar-ships and immortality on the Champions Plaque at the Chanhassen Rec Center. All participating bands are eligible to be selected for opportunities to play at Chanhassen's 2012 4th of July Celebration.
