Bandslam

“Band together”

Nobody at the new school knows why Will Burton (Gaelan Connell) shows up with a head full of band names and liner-note trivia, only that he does. Charlotte Banks (Aly Michalka) hears it and pulls him toward a crew of misfits with a rock band in mind, and a battle of the bands called Bandslam gives them a date to aim at. Todd Graff, who also co-wrote it, stages the music as loud and shared.
