About Chicks with Picks: Founded by “a couple of chicks with a vision,” Chicks with Picks wanted to provide a platform that showcases “up and coming” female singers and songwriters (Acoustic and Full Bands). Co-Founded by Pandy Raye and Rhonda Hitchcock, the Chicks With Picks is held every week at either the Buffalo Chip, Aunt Chilada’s, Joe’s Grotto, Skye (Raymonds Lounge) and Pranksters. They debuted their first festival last year at the Buffalo Chip campground.
