Rocketsmith
May i take the pleasure to introduce to you "Rocketsmith" a band that has just completed its first year in the indie/rock scene.,hailing from pickering in north yorkshire,england...they are fronted by andy warriner on lead vocals and acoustic guitar,then comes the very charismatic guitar wizzard hank bartrum and on bass the "baby" of the band as andy calls him john-henry joss cheetham,completing the line up is rowly palmer on drums.
I came across rocketsmith via myspace last may time,when i recieved a request to follow the band,being a curious chap and lover of all genres of music i joined and awaited some tunes to listen to.i didnt have to wait long as the lads had been hard at it in the studio putting a few numbers together.
The first track i heard was "three car pile up" "BANG" something clicked and i was so impressed with this and played it over and over till my poor long suffering wife couldn't take anymore,then came "real life" and "gravity",three cracking tunes that had me hooked on this band.
As you can see from the live gig in york last year at the dutchess,the band are more than capable of performing live and have done various slots at charity functions/private parties and in pubs in the north yorkshire area.
It only remains for me to wish the rocketeers of rocketsmith all the very best in their future ventures in the music world,they can be found on facebook/myspace and reverbnation and are building a good steady following...i hope you will follow them too and boost their fanbase.
