Today we're spending Seven Questions In Heaven with The Rocketboys!
Describe your music for our readers who may not be familiar with you.
We try and make music that is original, but still easy to take in. Basically, melodic rock that has big, anthemic moments, as well as soft, ambient layers; all with great hooks and melodies! Our new EP, Left | Right, has all that and then some, and we couldn't be more excited to share it!
Who are your musical influences and idols?
We've all always had varying tastes in music. From late '90s emo bands, to pop country, to hip hop. I think one thing that's always tied us all together though is our love of big, epic sounding bands like Arcade Fire, Radiohead, and Sigur Ros. There are so many great bands making music right now that it's hard to pick an all-time favorite, but easy to find a new one.
What was the first album, cassette, or CD you bought with your own money?
Sixteen Stone by Bush on cassette tape. I think next was a cassingle of Shaquille O'Neal's "Shoot Pass Slam." Even from early on, I had pretty diverse taste in music.
