Battle of the Businesses 2025: Fundraising for Music Education (Common Chord)

But it’s not just about the music – it’s about making a difference, too! All proceeds raised from this fundraising event will directly benefit the youth of the Quad Cities through providing music education and enrichment programming. So while you’re rocking out, you’re also supporting a great cause!

The annual fundraising event, which is $40 per person, features live music and assorted chocolates provided by Lagomarcino’s. Expect surprises, collaborations, and a whole lot of fun as these professionals battle it out and seek the coveted Golden Microphone.

2025 marks the 21st year for Common Chord and promises to be an exciting year as we celebrate 21 years of providing meaningful educational and community programming for our community.

All year long, Common Chord provides a variety of educational and enrichment programs to area youth designed to provide access to musical experiences and build positive relationships.

“Music plays a role in all our lives. You don’t have to be a professional musician to enjoy music, and these leaders prove that! It’s exciting to see business and nonprofit professionals share their hidden musical talents – all for a good cause, “ says Tyson Danner, Executive Danner for Common Chord.
