Competition Ruler of the hill

This edition, we bring back the Ruler of the Hill competition! On Saturday night, we open the floor for a ‘jam circle’ with a competitive element. On live music, of course.

Anybody can join the circle, in whatever constellation (solo, couple, team, trio…) and challenge the current ‘ruler of the hill’. Two parties compete with each other every round during one or two blues choruses. The judges point to the winning party, who will stay in the circle to battle the next contestant! Those who stay longest, are crowned Ruler of the Hill!

There is no need to sign up beforehand, but contestants will be asked to queue on the spot so that everyone who wants to join, gets a fair shot. 

Judges will look for personal expression, qualities of rhythm and musicality, blues aesthetics and overall quality of body movement. We are excited, are you?
