Vote for your favourite!

Since 2003, Get Ready to ROCK! has supported new, independent and established bands who we believe deserve wider attention/recognition.

Artists have received additional exposure via our quality reviews, interviews, and feature sections including "The Rising Stars".

We are now selecting 10 of our favourites who we think deserve wider recognition in 2010, hence "Ten for 10".

Selected artists will gain from increased promotion via our website and radio channel throughout the year.
