Founded in 2009, Gotham Rock Choir was formed to provide an outlet for Singers of all levels and backgrounds to explore contemporary music in a supportive, fun, uplifting environment, to provide an alternative to the City’s many traditional choirs and to provide much-needed sense of “cool” to choral Singing.

Over the years, Gotham Rock Choi...    less
