The ROCKEOKE PARTY PROJECT
The Rockeoke Party Project concept was adapted by Audiowitch in 2005 in the Kingdom of Bahrain. It is an engaging live band performance that encourages audience participation, allowing them to take center stage and become the stars of their own party instead of mere spectators. What initially began as a one-time event at the Windsor Hotel Bahrain evolved into a regular activity, expanding to other hotels in Manama, including Tabasco Charlie's at Adhari Hotel and Gulf Hotel, over the next four years. Each occasion proved to be a fun-filled and memorable party that captivated attendees.
The featured band for the Bahrain Rockeoke parties was Kaktooz, notable for being the first foreign band to release an all-original album in Bahrain, produced by Budweiser and Ramee Hotels.
Subsequently, the Rockeoke Party Project transitioned to Hong Kong, where it garnered immense popularity among both corporate and private parties. Members of Kaktooz, hailing from Bahrain, collaborated with seasoned Filipino resident musicians in Hong Kong to deliver live music for these events. The Rockeoke Party Project extended to different venues in neighboring Shenzhen, China. Demonstrating its universal appeal across diverse cultures and three different countries, The Rockeoke Party Project consistently remained a crowd favorite activity.
