MISSION
To create a unique rock experience that gives fans a closer look
into the artists they love as well as expose them to the growing
world of music podcasting and new media content creation.To
provide a one of a kind platform that brings together content
creators, artists, and music business types to network, plan, and
promote together in a rapidly changing industry.
DESCRIPTION
ROCKNPOD, an annual gathering of artists, media content
producers, vendors, and fans, celebrates the past, present, and
future of the rock music genre. Content creation and
networking are showcases of ROCKNPOD. The content creation
and networking between artists and new media producers
benefits all parties due to significant promotional opportunity
with an engaged audience. With mainstream media giving less
priority to the genre, new media producers help fill a
promotional void and market to a niche, but loyal audience.
ROCKNPOD is also a great fan event, providing fans with an
opportunity to see great performances and panel discussions,
buy music and related product from vendors as well as have an
intimate connection with some of their favorite artists.After 3
successful years with increases in attendance, revenue, and
media exposure, ROCKNPOD is readying itself for a big year in
2020.

1 YOU - Let us partner with you to help save Rock & Roll and present your brand to an invested, engaged audience!
ROCKNPOD founder/organizer Chris Czynszak has been a music podcaster since 2011. His show, The Decibel Geek Podcast, has become a popular show in the music podcasting genre; boasting millions of downloads and regular appearances on the iTunes charts.
ROCKNPOD came about in the most organic way possible. After guesting on other podcasts mostly through Skype or phone, Chris realized that a meetup of podcasters would be a fun thing to do. Nashville, his hometown, was chosen as a good central meeting point among a group of fellow music podcasters. Once the location was determined, it was determined that funding would be achieved via crowdfunding from podcast listeners. To give something back for their donations, Chris decided to bring in some vinyl and memorabilia vendors and call on some favors from previous guest musicians that he'd interviewed that lived locally. Suddenly, an expo was born.
After 2 successful years with crowdfunding the event (over $10K each year), ROCKNPOD moved into legitimate convention territory in 2019, moving to a hotel convention center and selling tickets through conventional means. ROCKNPOD succeeded once again.
Chris is hoping that some beneficial partnerships with a great company like yours will help take the ROCKNPOD to new horizons in its quest to help save Rock n Roll. We hope you'll help.
Chris Czynszak is a married father of three children (21, 20, and 16). His oldest son is currently serving in the Army in Germany, his middle child is working hard on her dreams in Florida, and his youngest is crushing it in high school!
