Week 2 saw QAHS host our annual inter-house Battle of the Bands competition. Each house performed two songs; Hard Times by Paramore and the other was a house specific song of their choosing. Students collaborated and transcribed each song in their own unique way with no two houses sounded the same. The amount of talent on display was phenomenal to behold. The weather was beautiful and the atmosphere was electric. A real festival feel!
Each house was amazing to watch and the crowd danced and sang along as the four houses battled it out for the status of 2025 Battle of the Bands Champion, with Terra house claiming victory. The event was judged by three industry professionals who were very impressed by the students energy, stage presence and house spririt. This year we had The Lost Knights founder and guitarist, Jesse Luque, She Cries Wolf Vocalist, Luke Harriss and Cheap Fakes Vocalist, Hayden Andrews.
A big thank you to all of the students and staff involved in the organising and running of this event, it is truly one the highlights on the QAHS calendar.
