Our Story…
Our Story
Inspired by tragedy—most notably the disappearance of Jennifer Dulos in Connecticut—Lisa Pinney-Keusch turned personal grief and music industry experience into action. Her journey led to active involvement in the fight for Jennifer' s Law and the founding of Rock the Walls, a community uniting survivors, reformers, and allies determined to end the silence around domestic abuse.
Lisa is the Founder and Executive Director of Rock the Walls, a nonprofit that is building a groundbreaking resource hub uniting resources, solutions, and voices to confront domestic abuse, expose systemic corruption, empower survivors, and drive lasting change. She has spent over a decade personally dealing with the failures of the family court system, which has led to her uniting with survivors and leaders statewide, nationally, and globally to effectuate lasting change. A music and entertainment industry veteran, Lisa ran the iconic Roseland Ballroom in New York City for over a decade and now leverages her experience to mobilize influential allies and create pathways for meaningful reform.
Rock the Walls Foundation is dedicated to transforming adversity into awareness, action, and hope. By bringing together survivors, advocates, and resources, the organization provides a user-friendly platform where those impacted by abuse can find vetted support, agencies, and professionals in one central space.
Music is at the heart of Rock the Walls’ identity, shaping its message, outreach, and events. Lisa’s upbringing in a creative musical family and career producing major concerts and events deeply influence the organization’s unique use of music to foster healing, connection, and public engagement. Through big events and powerful voices, Rock the Walls aims to reach and inspire those in need.
Rock the Walls is a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization, with donations funding research teams, advocate training, direct support for individuals in crisis, and transformative educational programs. The organization is committed to expanding resources nationwide, backed by community, grants, and technology investments for safety and accessibility.
The Healing Power of Music.
Music has been part of my life since the day I was born. My father was a musician and songwriter, part of the rock group, Steam, (“Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye” - people still chant it at sporting events today!)
Twenty years later, I worked on events at Tavern on the Green. Later, I became the Event Director at the legendary Roseland Ballroom. For more than a decade, I worked alongside many celebrated artists, forming lasting relationships across the music, entertainment, and hospitality industries.
