Jimmy’s team has created a pretty cool concept: Battle Of The Instant Bands.
Here’s how it works: before the show, the producers found members of the studio audience who were musicians, had them form two bands, and they had about 20 minutes to write and rehearse an original song before playing it right away on the show.
Have a look…

Between the two, I’d say that 30 Rockin’s “Amnesia” was the runaway winner; I’ve actually had the song kinda stuck in my head (an “earworm”) for the past few days, which is a sign that the song has a good ‘hook’ that stays with you – especially vital after only one listen.
What a cool concept for the show….hope they do more!
