    Decatur Girls Rock Showcase

    Decatur Metro | July 19, 2010

    Nate writes in noting that both his daughter Davis Crenshaw and Sidney Rhame represented Decatur at this year’s Girls Rock Camp Showcase this past Saturday night at the Variety.  The AJC has a kickin’ gallery of photos, including the one of Crenshaw above.

    Like an idiot, I never posted the event announcement for the showcase this year after it got lost in the email shuffle.  My apologies!

    Girls Rock Camp ATL Showcase This Saturday at Variety

    Decatur Metro | July 20, 2009

    In light of 11 year-old Sydney Rhame’s recent effort to claim the top prize in Kudzu’s “Amazing Kids” contest, Betsy writes in to let us know about Girls Rock Camp ATL, a start-up non-profit founded by “long-time Decaturites” that assists young girls in starting bands and creating original music.  It’s also where Sydney’s band “The Lock Outs” got their start last year, and according to Betsy, they’ll be returning this year.

    Major supporters of the Atlanta branch include the Indigo Girls and Sugarland, along with Atlanta merchants like the Brick Store, Noodle, Criminal Records and Highland Bakery.

    What can you do to support them?  Help them perform to a sold-out audience at Variety Playhouse.  Betsy continues…

    Girls’ Rock Camp (ATL) will rock Atlanta with new talent during its second annual Camper Showcase held at 7:30 p.m., July 25, 2009 at The Variety Playhouse. The showcase culminates a five-day camp during which a diverse group of 40 girls, ages 10-16 form bands, learn to play instruments, write original songs and rehearse for their public debut.

    Tickets are only $12 and can be purchased on Variety’s website.

    And if you can’t make the showcase, you can also donate old gear, time or money to the cause according to the website.
