For the second time, The Soundabout has been selected for the Rob Acda Awards. Last year we lost from the final winners, The Red 17, so better luck this time.

The Rob Acda Award is a band competition in Haarlem that has been running for 16 years. Well-known previous winners are The Sheer, Stuurbaard Bakkebaard, Funkabilities and K-Oz Collective. The prizes are shows at big festivals such as Bevrijdingspop 2012.

This evening 6 bands play for the finals on march 30th 2012, where The Soundabout would love to play a crazy show and win. So come to Haarlem and support your local reggae/funk/rap/skaband!

The bands playing tonight are Headwear, Nornagesta, Halfway Useless, Camel & Reinaldus, The Fridge and of course The Soundabout. The order in which the bands play will be announched on the night itself, so be there in time!
