Formed in 2006 and based out of Minneapolis, PopROCKS is made up of talented, seasoned musicians from around the Twin Cities. Individually, each band member is no stranger to the stage. As a group, PopROCKS members enjoy a dynamic, high-powered chemistry that can only come from time spent playing together. The fun they have on stage is as infectious as their playlist of HIT POP TUNES. 

Female vocalist Mandy Lane has been starring in film and stage productions since early childhood and is one of the official national anthem singers for the Minnesota WILD and Minnesota Twins.

Jason "Buzz" Swanson, on bass and vocals, currently does double duty playing inn PopROCKS and original funk/jazz quartet, Chill7.
