Fresh from the brutal round-one eliminations in episode 1, the ten bands roar south to rock & roll’s heartland.


Before the mayhem begins, each band visits Memphis’s sites, including Elvis’s mansion, the Memphis Civil Rights Museum, and Beale Street, where the bands attempt to convince anyone they can to attend their evening performance.

Playing at the legendary Gibson Showcase Theater, each band does their best to impress the judges and stave off elimination. One band wins a chance to record with star rapper and mentor Al Kapone.


Despite all the fun, this is a competition: one band will be eliminated by the end and made to ride the plane of shame. Think your band can do better? Join The Battle!
