About Rock Voices

Our mission statement: Healing ourselves and others through song.

Our directors strive to help everyday people find their voices. Can’t read music? No problem - most of our members don’t read music either! (We provide recordings to help you learn your part by ear.) Never sung before? That’s ok - chances are you know the songs, and will love singing in a big group where you you won’t stand out. Want to stand out? Audition for a solo and fulfill your dreams to be a rock star!

WHO CAN SING?

Our choirs are full of people just like you who want to sing! We have people who’ve been singing all their lives as well as people who’ve never sung a note. Our rehearsals are a safe and supportive environment for you to sing without fear of judgement. Make new friends. Learn something about your voice. Sing the music you love with a roomful of kindred spirits. Have you always wanted to sing with a band? Rock Voices has already helped many people knock that item off of their bucket lists!

DO YOU PERFORM?

Yes! At the end of the season there will be a concert with a live band backing up the choir! We hire professional musicians for the band to make sure you get the rock star experience when on stage. Concerts are not mandatory, though. If you have anxiety about being on stage or singing in front of crowds, you can opt not to sing. You may find that the weekly rehearsals are where you get the biggest benefit. Either way is fine.

CHARITABLE GIVING

We use the power of our voices combined in song to help raise money and awareness for charitable organizations. Do you have a suggestion for our fundraising efforts? Contact our Charitable Giving Coordinator by email: giving@rockvoices.com

How Do I Join?

If the season has not started yet, pre-register to let us know you’re interested. If the season is already under way, email us to see if it’s too late to join. You can also just stop by a rehearsal any time to see what it’s all about.

Registration for the Summer season is happening now!

Cost
The cost to participate for one season is $260. You may pay in installments to spread out the cost, and scholarships are available to those who can demonstrate a need. We accept credit card payments through our secure online portal, which you can access by clicking this link: Click here to enroll.
 
To enroll in a rehearsal, choose your location under "Choir Rehearsal Locations" and then pick the location nearest you. Confirm your timezone (this is essential!), then select the rehearsal you'd like to attend. When you click on that rehearsal, a square box will pop up with a green "enroll" link. You do not have to pay to enroll in a rehearsal, but if you'd like to go ahead and pay, you can do so by choosing one of the payment plan options. Enrolling is a really good idea, though - because if we have to reschedule, or notify you of any last-minute details, that's the only way we can reach you!
 
Refunds
As long as you let your director know within the FIRST THREE WEEKS that you are unable to continue, you will receive a full refund. If you've paid $50 but don't let us know you're leaving until the 4th week, that's too late. (That $50 covers the time that you did participate.) After the first three weeks, refunds are only provided in cases of medical emergencies, family care situations, or loss of job, and will be pro-rated as fairly as possible.
Folders
Music is loaned out and returned at the end of the season. If you’d like to take your folder of music home with you at your first rehearsal, you will need to leave a first payment of $50. This is not a deposit that you get back at the end of the season - it’s a payment towards your tuition. If you let us know within the first three weeks that you are not continuing, simply return your folder and you’ll be refunded your $50. After the first three weeks, the $50 is not refundable.
Scholarships
Financial assistance is available for those who can demonstrate a need. The deadline to apply is typically the weekend before a season starts. Applications are kept confidential and will be responded to before the first rehearsal. Scholarships make it possible for many of our members to participate, and are partially funded through donations as well as from special events held throughout the year like our Halloween Karaoke Costume Party and our Music Trivia Challenge.
