About Silicon Valley Rocks!
Silicon Valley Rocks! was founded in 2008 by Alison Murdock, a technology executive, non-profit board member and musician. The event was created as a fundraiser for music education with the intent of bringing musically inclined technology professionals together to perform. Over the years, the event has featured musicians such as Tim Chang and Randi Zuckerberg and players from Facebook, Lyft, Dropbox, Apple, Pandora, and Google. After a five-year hiatus when Murdock put the event on pause to focus on a startup, Silicon Valley Rocks! is back with the support of donors like Black Box Storage Lockers, Soundbrenner, Blue Bear School of Music, and more. Learn more at svrocks.com.
