In 2016, the inimitable Grace Kendall put together the first ever Wizard Rock Sampler. Every year since then, over one hundred newly-released wizard rock songs from all over the world have been submitted and it’s time once again to open up the call for submissions for the 2021 Wizard Rock Sampler.

Grace has done some amazing work over the last few years, bringing the community together each year to see just what we can do. They have decided to finally step down and hand the project over to TK Lawrence of Totally Knuts, who is VERY excited to keep the magic of the Samplers going.

If you’re in a wizard rock band (or you want to start one), you are more than welcome to submit a song to this year’s Sampler! Wizard rockers old and new are invited to submit their creations. All of the guidelines on requirements and how to submit a song can be found here. The deadline to submit is June 30th, 2021.

The Sampler is meant to showcase what’s still going strong in our community, and help newer bands reach a wider audience. If you have questions about the sampler, don’t hesitate to reach out to TK at wrocksampler@gmail.com.

Help keep the magic going by spreading the word and submitting to the Sampler if you are so inclined! I can’t wait to see what this year brings!
