SonicbidsEach year AgapeFest hosts a Battle of the Bands on the Greenville College campus. The winners of this first round proceed to battle again on Second Stage at the festival on Friday afternoon. Two champions are then selected and they receive a full set on Main Stage Saturday morning.

This year Sonicbids is sponsoring the Battle of the Bands. In business since 2000, Sonicbids has become the standard way for people in the music business to send and receive press kits online. The company’s main product is the Sonicbids EPKā„¢ (Electronic Press Kit), an easy-to-use, web-based graphic interface that contains all the basic information of a musical act such as music, photos, date calendar and riders. The EPK can either be emailed to anyone with a click of the mouse or submitted in online promoter accounts through a virtual “Drop Box”. Sonicbids currently has over 40,000 bands and 3,600 exclusive partners, a list that includes prominent North American events and festivals such as MIDEM, CMJ, Summerfest, North By Northeast, NEMO, Canadian Music Week, Folk Alliance, Locobazooka!, and the Billboard Song Contest. The rapidly growing size of Sonicbids’ network and widening acceptance of its product have helped it quickly become the leading online submission platform for some of the world’s best-known music events.
