B.B. King Blues Club & Grill

It's time to face the music! The 13th Annual Media Battle of the Bands is on March 8, 2006! Bringing together New York's top executives in the media and cable industries at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill, the event is a not-to-miss night of good fun and great music, with a little bit of networking.
During this amped-up event, media executives leave the suits and ties at home to come play in rock & roll bands before a cheering crowd of their colleagues. The evening's lineup features rock, blues and soul groups composed of employees from top New York-based cable networks and ad agencies. Over the years, it has become one of the most popular events of the year for the media and television industries.
In its first year, 1993, the Battle of the Bands raised $44,000. Last year, we raised over $336,000 thanks to the generous support of dozens of cable television networks, major ad agencies and television research companies.
