Battle of the Bow: Cast your vote for the Favorite Band Award!

05.06.2023
Fourteen vessels have joined the Battle of the Bow, a music challenge for Odfjell-managed vessels.

The competition aims to showcase and share the wide range of our seafarers' talents, while promoting teamwork and camaraderie on board. To allow more vessels to participate, the competition has defined band as having at least two members. Vessels are allowed to choose a song to perform (including original composition), and are given creative freedom in making their video entry. The only requirement is to play the music and sing the lyrics.

Two prizes will be awarded, each worth an additional USD 600 in welfare funds:


Below are the entries, and you can vote for your favorite/s by clicking on the name of the band and reacting with a like or heart on the original post. Those with Office 365 accounts can also vote here. Voting deadline is on June 9, 16:00 UTC. Feel free to vote for as many entries as you like!
