Rocket

LA's alt-rockers Rocket have announced their debut album, R is for Rocket, on October 3rd via Transgressive Records / Canvasback. With the announcement, the band has also released their latest single "Wide Awake" now streaming everywhere. The single is preceded by previously released singles "Crossing Fingers" and "One Million" both taken from the forthcoming LP. Their sound is described as a mix of ‘90s inspired guitar rock with elements of alternative rock, dream pop and shoegazee, taking cues from bands like Sonic Youth, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Pixies and My Bloody Valentine, while evolving into something uniquely their own. The band has already toured with Sunny Day Real Estate and will be touring this fall with The Smashing Pumpkins.
