Phoenix New Times: How the Phoenix Rock Lottery benefits Rosie’s House
The Phoenix Rock Lottery is an annual, adrenaline‑packed event where 25 local musicians are randomly grouped into five bands, tasked with writing and performing new music in a single day at Crescent Ballroom—tickets cost $15–20 and all proceeds benefit Rosie’s House, a nonprofit offering free music education to underserved youth across the Valley. It’s a fun, high‑energy showcase that both celebrates Phoenix’s vibrant music community and raises crucial funds to support Rosie’s House’s mission of providing instruments and lessons to kids who otherwise couldn’t afford them.
