SCHOOL musicians will go head to head in a Battle of the Bands competition.

The first heat in Salford's Battle of the Bands contest will take place on Sunday.

The line-up includes bands from schools across the city, including Not Another Emo Title, from Harrop Fold School in Hilton Lane, Worsley, and Wrongly Accused, from Harrop Fold Schools other site in Little Hulton.

The event is the brainchild of Salford City Council's community safety team.

The prize is a recording session at Blueprint Studios, used by Bury band Elbow. Five bands will compete in a finale on February 22.
