The folks at Wakarusa are looking for a few new bands for the festival lineup this summer, and one of them will be chosen here in Fayetteville next month.
The festival will host another installment of its annual Waka Winter Classic, and the winner of the battle-of-the-bands-style competition will earn a place on a Wakarusa stage.
The classic will travel to 16 cities beginning Jan. 10, and will stop in Fayetteville on Jan. 25 at George’s Majestic Lounge.
Wakarusa 2013 is set for May 30 – June 2, 2013 on Mulberry Mountain.
To submit your band for consideration for this year’s showcase, follow the instructions at reverbnation.com.
