Student Bands

Student Band Spotlight 2025

Continuing with GAB’s mission to unite student groups of all backgrounds, this year GAB is taking an unconditional approach to the winter concert and putting the spotlight on Student Bands. With this event event we are able to feature four different bands, and in doing so, we aim to bring together students of all different walks of life.

With three of the four bands returning from the 2023 Battle of the Bands and two returning from our fall student band tailgate series, we are excited to welcome a total of 27 students to the stage for a once in the lifetime college experience. See down below to meet Meat Puzzle, 38th Parallel, Local Honey, and House Mom. Your peers, your friends, your classmates, your new favorite musicians.
