7th Annual Chicks Rockfest

Do you have what it takes? Have you won nearly every local award there is to win? Have you appeared in every women rocker magazine, and then some? Does Billboard have your name on a list as the next big thing?

That doesn't matter here!

The past is behind you and the future is straight ahead at the Chicks Rockfest. The only criteria are that you have a female in your band and that you do indeed rock. No fears, there is no discrimination of any sort here at the festival. We will not discriminate if you have had your share of awards, have a male vocalist, or refuse to use a Marshall stack.

We may discriminate for bad tones, poor singing and an uninteresting stage show. We will also re-judge you year after year, submission after submission, as you better yourself in the local music industry. Don't let your previous bad drummer hold you back from submitting again this year. We hold no grudges. If your performance, songs, writing, or line up has changed, we want to know! Rock music isn't just a request at this festival, we crave it, we want it, we can't wait to hear it and exploit it all over our stage!

Held in April in Cincinnati, Chicks Rockfest is going into its 7th year now, and it’s looking to be one of the best ever. Last year’s festival drew 1,000 people to view over 30 emerging artists. There are 3 slots reserved for Sonicbids artists, who will all receive an artist goodie bag.

This is not about being a girl, joining organizations, or supporting a cause. While we firmly believe all of those things can be very important things, it's just not what we do here. In a nutshell, our mission here is to rock hard, rock loud and rock well.

We do plan shows and events throughout the year as well and we like to use those to our advantage to get your rockin' butts down here and show us what you've got!
