The band has now made it to the final four and are so close to being the winner. The four advancing performers traveled to New York City last week to record and perform one studio song and meet with Rolling Stone editors, Atlantic A&R executives and other industry professionals including Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump. The new song will be added to the portfolio that the musicians started during Round Two of the competition in which each group recorded and perfected two studio songs. In the coming weeks, fans will be able to view videos of the performances and access other content on RollingStone.com. By rating the acts, fans will determine which two will move on to the final round where the bands will battle it out at Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in June.
