The Syndicate will perform at Dillo Day after winning Mayfest’s Battle of the Bands. The competition took place Thursday night at 27 Live, 1012 Church St.. The winner was determined by a panel of judges, but attendance for each student band also factored into the decision.

The Syndicate describes itself as “an eclectic blend of hip-hop, funk, R&B and jazz” on its Facebook page. Five student bands competed for the spot. Mayfest also announced at the event that rock band The Mowgli’s will be the Dillo Day opener. Rapper ScHoolboy Q will headline Dillo Day, and hip-hop and R&B artist Anderson .Paak will also perform.
