Important info about your audition:
Thank you for your interest in auditioning for our worship experiences at Red Rocks Church! Our musicians and vocalists serve various ministries of our church, from Red Rocks Youth to Red Rocks Young Adults, as well as our campus weekend experiences. Our church is sustained by its amazing volunteers! Please save this link for future reference.
Our audition process contains three steps: Get-to-Know-You, Completing Your Audition, and Onboarding. Being a part of the Red Rocks Church worship team is not about showcasing ability but pouring into the local church by stewarding spaces where people can encounter Jesus. We want to get hear more about you and make sure we would be good working on a team together! From there we will complete the formal audition — all the steps are detailed below. After that we will begin the onboarding process and get you plugged in to one our teams as soon as possible!

These resources are intended to give you an idea of how to prepare outside of rehearsal spaces. This is a good indication of communication within our campus worship teams. The process of listening to content and preparing at home is very similar to preparing for our services. All of our campuses utilize in-ear monitoring. Click-track competency is essential for each musician and vocalist.
