Sound Off! 2010
Battle of the Underage Bands


For the ninth year EMP|SFM hosts Sound Off!, the Northwest's largest underage battle of the bands.

A launching pad for musical careers, Sound Off! has enjoyed hosting many young up-and-coming bands over the years including Schoolyard Heroes, New Faces, The Lonely Forest, Dyme Def, The Lonely H, Sol, and Natalie Portman's Shaved Head. If you’re age 21 or under and play rock, hip-hop, electronic, pop or any other kind of music, this is your chance to join the ranks of these luminary groups and perform at EMP|SFM

The live concerts for the next Sound Off! will take place the following Saturday nights, February 13, 20, 27 and March 6, 2010. The competition culminates in a Sky Church show that will pit the winners from each semifinal night in a duel for a number of great prizes.

In addition to receiving the press and recognition traditionally awarded to those who are a part of Sound Off!, the groups selected to participate will learn from industry heavyweights what it takes to have a successful music career post-Sound Off! Competition finalists will also get a personalized consultation to help guide them in their development as artists.
