BMI Indie Spotlight:Rocket
Rocket, a Los Angeles band formed in 2021 by longtime friends Alithea Tuttle, Baron Rinzler, Cooper Ladomade, and Desi Scaglione, quickly established themselves with high-energy debut recordings. Building on the success of their acclaimed Versions of You EP, the band’s debut album, R is for Rocket, features powerful guitar-driven tracks that blend nostalgic influences with a fresh sound, drawing comparisons to ‘90s bands like Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine. The band evolved through extensive touring and studio experimentation, rethinking their approach to guitar tones and incorporating new elements like piano and mellotron. Lyrically, they explore themes of relationships – romantic, familial, and self-reflective – through songs like “One Million,” “Crossing Fingers,” and “Number One Fan.” Above all, the strong friendships among band members and their willingness to experiment has solidified Rocket as a dynamic, promising group.
