Description "The Australian National Women's Rock Institute has been developed to establish a national network, based in Sydney, for women and girls who already have an expertise in the rock industry or who wish to develop an expertise in their chosen field.
The Rock Festival is the first of its kind and is an attempt to draw attention to those women who have contributed enormously to the rock industry...
...The festival will end with two concerts, with the emphasis on exposing all girls rock bands from both Sydney and interstate."
