SPILL NEWS: ROCKET ANNOUNCE DEBUT EP ‘VERSIONS OF YOU’ OUT OCTOBER 27

ROCKET ANNOUNCE DEBUT EP VERSIONS OF YOU OUT OCTOBER 27

SHARE LEAD SINGLE “PORTRAIT SHOW”

Los Angeles-based Rocket have announced their debut EP, Versions of You, out October 27th, and share lead single “Portrait Show.” Pitting Sonic Youth & Dinosaur Jr-esque guitar riffs against soaring harmonies, the single perfectly distills what’s made Rocket one of the West Coast’s buzziest new bands.  On the single, vocalist Alithea Tuttle explains, “I wrote this song like I was speaking to myself in the mirror. Lyrically it takes you inside of my brain and lets you in on how easy it is for me to accept defeat. The first verse is split into the two sides of my mind, one being self deprecating and the other one trying to fight that.”

Comprised of Alithea Tuttle (Bass, Vocals), Baron Rinzler (Guitar), Cooper Ladomade (Drums) and Desi Scaglione (Guitar), the members of Rocket have all know each other for a very long time, some since as early as preschool, and the full group coalescing in high school. With only three singles to their name, the amount of momentum they’ve been able to build is impressive, opening for bands like Pretty Sick, bar italia, Hello Mary, and more. Next week, they’ll begin their first ever US tour, joining likeminded LA grunge trio MILLY, performing in Los Angeles, New York, Austin, Chicago, and more before returning home to support Julie at Santa Ana’s Constellation Room for two sold out shows.
