Rock & Roll Rumble 2019

24 bands. 9 nights. 1 crown.

A time-honored live music tradition, an institution, and the World Series of Boston Rock.
Founded by Boston’s radio behemoth, 104.1 WBCN, the Rock of Boston, the first official Rumble took place in 1979 at the legendary RAT in Kenmore Square. The Neighborhoods won. We continue in that spirit where bands play to new audiences, gain new fans, and raise their profile in the city.
