RocketRocketShip’s distinct sound is rooted in rock and roll, but thanks to some catchy pop hooks, they’ve had little trouble finding a home on a variety of Canadian radio stations coast to coast. Performing with the likes of Marianas Trench, Down With Webster, Arkells, and Faber Drive probably hasn’t hurt their profile, either.
Their debut single, “Back Where I Belong,” taken from their 2012 LP Your Best Kept Secret, set the stage nicely for the subsequent release of the single “Here’s To Us” approximately a year later. The latter track quickly found a home on satellite radio, Hot AC, AC, Rock, Top 40, and College radio stations right across the country.
Their impressive work eithic is not going unnoticed. In addition to showcases during last year’s East Coast Music Week, the group also scored four nominations at the 2013 Music NL Awards, taking home the prize for Pop/Rock Group of the Year.
Their next effort, Shake It Off, is expected to drop later this year, and fans of hooky pop rock done right should keep an ear out for it.
