Ever felt like School of Rock spoke to you on a level you could only express through the distorted scuzz of your electric guitar? Ever felt like Black Sabbath wasn’t merely a band to enjoy, but a lifestyle to emulate both on, and off, the stage? Well, such dreams may no longer be a fantasy, but a very tangible reality.
Jack Daniel’s has returned with the highly anticipated Battle of the Bands, and the iconic whiskey maker has joined forces with Barasti – the multi award-winning beach bar – to search for the best band, a.k.a. the hardest rockers, in the UAE.
