Marysville garage band Gas Station Chicken took home first place at the second annual MusicNomad Battle of the Bands on Saturday.
The Sonoma Index-Tribune reports the punk and alt-rock group beat out eight other youth bands from across the region at Sonoma Plaza’s Grinstead Amphitheater.
Open to musicians in grades six through twelve, the competition strictly features independent, youth-run bands competing for cash prizes. Gas Station Chicken secured the top one-thousand-dollar prize and bragging rights with their victory.
As part of their grand prize, the band is set to perform live tonight at the Sonoma Plaza Tuesday Night Farmers Market.
