DO YOU
ROCK, RAP, WAIL, JAM?
If you and your bandmates have musical chops, this is your
chance to be in the spotlight and show the world.

HOW DOES
IT WORK?

With Launchpad, a music competition for high school students who are in bands formed outside of school, you'll compete against your peers in a regional concert extravaganza. The top three finalists from each region then compete in Madison for the grand prize: free studio recording time in Madison, a Summerfest appearance and the Les Paul Launchpad Award.
