7 lawyer-led bands are ready to rock Night One of The 11th Annual Law Rocks Washington DC!

We 🫶 DC! Thank you to everyone who rocked The Atlantis with us for the 10th Annual Law Rocks Washington DC!

The evening kicked off our Fall 2025 tour, marked a decade of rocking with the DC legal community, and our first time bringing our rock battle to The Atlantis!

8 bands brought a world of talent to the stage, crushing covers that wowed the crowd from the opening notes through the encore. Over $149K was raised in a sold-out show that highlighted the musical talents of local legal professionals and brought the legal community together to rock for a good cause. Congratulations to all bands for a night full of outstanding performances! 👏👏👏

Law Rocks! is very proud to be supporting www.teamv3nture.com in their bid to complete the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge – an unsupported Atlantic Row East to West – branded the World’s Toughest Row.

They are raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support, and three Military charities.

Robert Cross, Charlie Newman and Robert Treasure are three soldiers, bonded by a desire to push themselves to their limits and make a positive difference whilst doing so. They met at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 2019 and soon became firm friends.
​
In 2020, they were selected to compete in a rigorous military skills competition at West Point, USA. Covid laid waste to that, so they decided to fundraise for charity by running marathons in their gardens whilst wearing cricket kit!!
​
Today, they prepare to embark on their latest venture. Together, they are set to be the first official military trio to row any ocean.

You can follow their progress through the link above.

Bon voyage boys!!!!!
