Throughout the run of the Battle, various established professionals from the rock & roll industry will invade from the wings and offer their tested knowledge to the bands.


These experts are producers, engineers, songwriters, photographers, music video directors, musicians, and even radio DJs. Each will weigh-in on the challenges set before the bands and provide their expertise and mentorship to help them succeed - or at least, to tell us who hasn't.


These mentors will be revealed throughout the course of the season. Return here weekly to find out who will star in the next episode.
