It finally happened! We had competed at the local community college battle of the bands on three separate years: 2009, 2010, and again this year. We had always placed second by a one or two point margin, so this year we were prepared. We chose our 5 favorite original songs and put them under a microscope, refining them the best we could for almost a month. It paid off.
And there you have it! The Short Term Melody, winner of the Golden West College Battle of the Bands. It's not a Grammy, but it sure feels good anyway!
Posted below are videos of the entire set in order of appearance. Enjoy!
