WELCOME
TO RICHMOND ROOTS REVIVAL
*Supporting
local Richmond bands since 2004*
Richmond Roots Revival
(RRR)
is an organization dedicated to supporting local original music in
Richmond, Virginia.
RRR
hosted a monthly concert series between October 2004 and September
2007 that was geared to be a platform for local bands and musicians
who concentrated on original music. These shows were held at
various venues in Richmond that supported local music. Various genres of
music were showcased including rock, pop, Americana, roots,
country, blues, bluegrass, jam and alt-country. Each show
included
an acoustic
opener followed by two bands with complimentary styles of
music. Always involved with every aspect of the monthly shows,
RRR booked the various venues and bands to perform, promoted the shows,
created and distributed flyers, updated the website with show and band
information, ran sound for all shows, and supported the musicians in every way. To celebrate both our
first and second year of monthly shows, we organized two
showcases at Alley Katz in Richmond, each with an awesome line-up of
entertainment. We were excited to have some great press from the
local media about RRR and these events (see our Quotes page).
Many
talented bands and musicians in Richmond have joined together on RRR stages.
And they were not only able to
share and increase their fan bases, but also got to connect and
network with many great musicians and venues in the
area. After two and a half years, Richmond Roots Revival has
been proud to put over 75 different bands and acoustic
musicians on 32 consecutive monthly shows. Richmond Roots Revival has also been involved with organizing the
entertainment for many festivals and events in the area (see our
Events page for a listing). We've been very proud to put some of
the best bands in town on festival stages and helped make each event a success.
RRR
no longer hosts regular monthly shows but will continue to support
local music in Richmond in any way we can. If you are an organizer that would
like our help with booking entertainment for any event, large or
small, feel free to contact us.
Support
local music in Richmond!
