BeachLife is hosting a Toy Drive for St. Jude, that is ALSO a Battle of the Bands! Kids bands can compete for a slot to play at this year’s BeachLife Festival in May! Bands can post a video of their band playing a song to social media and tag BeachLife Festival. From all the submissions, our panel of judges will review the entries and select 3-5 finalists, who will then play at our Final Battle Event on December 15 at Rock N Brews Redondo Beach from 6pm-8pm!
