GOTHAM ROCKS is a New York City-based modern rock showcase that is set to feature the best local NYC bands as well as some amazing and as-of-yet under the radar independent touring bands from all over the Northeast and Mid atlantic regions.
The goals of GOTHAM ROCKS are:
To provide music fans with an organized full night of the best music entertainment NY has to offer.
To pair indie music companies, bookers, promoters, radio, labels etc with the absolute best in independent local and regional bands.
To give NYC rock bands who are ready to make the transition from local to regional touring band the opportunity to meet and team up with bands from other parts of the country.
To foster and coalesce the growth of the modern and hard rock scene in NYC – a town that is more known for its hipster and indie rock and hip hop and yet has a thriving (if unorganized) hard rock scene.
To provide all of the bands with a quality forum for them to showcase their talents to both fans and industry simultaneously. Creating opportunities for both independent bands and the companies, venues, labels etc that work with them.
