Want to reach out to us with a question?
You can always email info@rockvoices.com for a response.
But before you reach out, have you read our FAQs?
All our rehearsals run from 7PM – 9PM unless otherwise stipulated. Your director may make small adjustments (e.g., 30 minutes later/earlier) as needed.
If you aren’t able to attend one night, no need to let us know – just show up the following week!
Your director will provide you with a full list of dates for your choir’s rehearsals.
Part recordings are available for all enrolled singers, and are an easy way to learn your voice part. You listen to your part in your left ear, and the rest of the song in your right ear. Want to download these? Head to our member page (be sure you check your email for the password!) Don’t know the password? Email info@rockvoices.com and ask us.
Having trouble accessing the part recordings from this Season’s Members page?
It’s likely your computer is loading the page from cache but it actually needs to load it fresh from the server. On Windows use Ctrll+F5. On a Mac, Shift+Reload or press Shift+Cmd+R. You may need to enter the season password again.

The button below will take you to a survey that includes several potential themes, and gives you an opportunity to suggest a song for each theme. There’s even a place for you to suggest your own theme (and a song to go with it). Our Executive and Creative Director Tony Lechner is constantly going back to these spreadsheets for inspiration, so your suggestions may come in handy in the future, too. There are a LOT of themes listed on the survey but don’t feel pressured to suggest something for every one of them. Just do the ones you want to do. You can also keep the survey open and add songs as you think of them. Or make a big list and then open this survey and fill it out all at once. We appreciate any input you’re willing to give.
BEFORE REHEARSAL
If you are sick, or think you may have been exposed to COVID, do not attend rehearsal in person. Monitor yourself for symptoms, and test with an at-home rapid-result antigen test. Once you are no longer symptomatic, you must test negative on two successive days (using a rapid-result at-home antigen test, NOT a PCR test) before returning to rehearsals.
Members may attend more than one rehearsal in a week, enabling you to travel to other locations. If you are visiting other choirs, please do so responsibly: take an at-home rapid-result covid antigen test before leaving home. If you test positive, please notify us, stay home and take good care of yourself.
AT REHEARSAL
Everyone must provide proof of CDC-recommended vaccines and booster shots. (The CDC recommends a booster five months after your last vaccination.) To find a booster shot near you, use this link.
Masking is optional. The Rock Voices Central Office will continue to track data on each choir’s local wastewater surveillance data, case/hospitalization/death rates, and other data points. We will evaluate that data along with current trends in your area. If masking is recommended for your community, your group will be notified via email and in person. Those wishing to mask at any time may do so regardless of our policy. We strongly suggest that if you are opting to wear a mask, you opt for a disposable N95 or equivalently-rated face mask. This link can help you identify NIOSH-approved masks.
AFTER REHEARSAL
If you realize you have been exposed to COVID, please notify us by emailing info@rockvoices.com so we can notify your fellow choir members. We will not identify you in that situation.

All of our rehearsals are held at 7PM local time, regardless of location. Minor adjustments to this time (i.e., 30 minutes earlier/later) might also be possible depending on the director.
Each of our sessions involves weekly rehearsals for about 12 weeks, depending upon the session. A full calendar of your specific choir’s dates will be provided by your director.
If you know that you cannot attend a rehearsal, that’s okay; no need to let us know. Just show up the following week.
Your choir will meet for about 12 weeks, rehearsing more songs each week in preparation for a live concert, complete with a live, professional rock band. At last, you get to actually BE a rockstar!!
Rock Voices concerts can be very expensive to produce, necessitating an admission charge. Our ticket prices are in line with concerts by similar performing arts groups, including community choirs, theater and dance organizations. Your tuition money pays for the day-to-day expenses of the regular choir season, but does not go towards concerts, which are covered completely by admission fees.
A typical Rock Voices concert will be held in a large auditorium or church and feature a live rock band backing up the choir. In cases where a choir is too small to field an audience, we will set up an alternative concert opportunity that will be less formal and will feature our own customized instrumental backing tracks rather than a band. This allows us to provide a concert experience for a group that otherwise would not be able to generate enough sales to produce a full concert.

A note about ticket prices: Rock Voices concerts can be very expensive to produce, necessitating an admission charge. Our ticket prices are in line with and often more affordable than concerts by similar performing arts groups, including community choirs, theater and dance organizations. In addition to the rental of the performance space we have such expenses as riser rental, sound engineering, and paying the band.
