Wizard Rock
Come and hear rock as you never have before! Wizard
Rock is a musical phenomenon based on the Harry Potter
books that has taken over the world’s libraries and music
venues alike. With musical styles ranging from acapella
to heavy metal, these magical musicians have taken
the underground music scene by storm. Come and see
Romilda Vane and the Chocolate Cauldrons from Cork,
Siriusly Hazza P from the UK and the godfathers of Wizard
Rock: Harry and the Potters from Massachusetts, USA!
Prepare to rock out - nerd style!
Suitable for all ages.
“Some important things for the non fan to understand
about wizard rock: The songs can be funny, but wizard
rock is not a joke. It’s not a stunt. It’s not for little kids,
or not just for them. It is exactly as advertised: music
about Harry Potter for people who think Harry Potter is
awesome.” TIME MAGAZINE
