DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) — Organizers of Wiregrass Fest are searching for a high school student band to take the stage during this year’s event.
According to organizers, they are looking for students who have formed their own bands and perform live music — not high school marching bands.
Rock, country, indie, soul, R&B, funk, punk, alternative, jazz and bluegrass are among the genres welcome to apply.
The selected band will perform a 30-minute opening set at Wiregrass Fest on Sunday, Oct. 4.
Bands must have at least two members and perform using live instruments without backing tracks.
Students interested in the opportunity should email [email protected] with a video of their band performing.
Organizers said the search is aimed at finding and showcasing the Wiregrass area’s next generation of musicians.
