🎸❄️ Jingle Bells & Power Cords: The BIG Holiday Battle of the Bands ❄️🎸
Presented by Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeast Michigan
Are you ready to rock the holidays for a cause that hits all the right notes?
​
Big Brothers Big Sisters is thrilled to launch Jingle Bells & Power Cords – The BIG Holiday Battle of the Bands, a brand-new virtual tournament celebrating the music of the holidays — and the music that made you. We’re on the hunt for 8 show-stopping bands to compete in a fast-paced, high-energy competition to raise funds and awareness for life-changing youth mentorship.
🎄 HOW IT WORKS:
Week 1: 8 bands go head-to-head in holiday showdown matchups
Week 2: The top 4 bands advance to face off in the semi-finals
Week 3: The final 2 duke it out for the title — and the cash prize
Each band will submit one music video, featuring your reimagined take on a holiday classic.
No cookie-cutter covers here — we want you to remake the song in your own voice and style. Think indie “Let It Snow,” metal “Frosty the Snowman,” or funk “O Holy Night.” Take a holiday tune we all know and give it a total glow-up that only your band could pull off. 🎅🎸💥
đź’¸ VOTING = FUNDRAISING
Each band gets a dedicated campaign page. Fans, friends, and BBBS supporters will vote with their wallets — every $1 = 1 vote. The band with the most votes in each matchup advances to the next round. The further you go, the more exposure you get.
🏆 Winner takes home 10% of all funds raised, and the runner-up takes 5%. Plus: bragging rights for life.
đź“Ł PROMOTION & EXPOSURE
Big Brothers Big Sisters will spotlight the participating bands every week on:
Instagram & TikTok
Weekly newsletter campaigns
Website & supporter updates
We’re bringing your music to an audience of thousands who care about community and culture — so come ready to shine.
