Rock The Republic is working on its third year of the breakout event that features the best emerging bands, poets, and visual artists from across the “republic” of Texas (hence the name Rock The Republic). Our event fuses the underground culture of Texas “slam poetry” with the diversity of the Texas music scene. Add amazing art installations, exhibits, and “spectacles” that have never been seen before and you have Rock The Republic 2011. RTR is “A Spectacle of Sight and Sound.” Think of us as the next evolution of the music and arts festival experience.
