Rock-n-Romp!

About Me

Rock-n-Romp is a family friendly concert series started in the DC area that showcases fantastic local musicians and bands, and now has outposts in Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Memphis and Philadelphia. Shows are held during the day in a relaxed, kid-safe environment, and while the volume is lower than a typical concert, the music still ROCKS. You may hear a kiddie song every once in a while, but these shows are about the kind of music you listened to BEFORE YOU HAD KIDS. Kids enjoy the watching the bands, experiment with instruments, dance, or just run around and hang out, and parents get the ever-so-rare opportunity to see a great live show and hang out with other like-minded parents. Romps give parents who miss their social life a chance to get out, enjoy some music that might be new to them, and expose their kids to great bands in a safe, friendly environment. What's not to love?? Go to www.rocknromp.com for all the details!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:
