About Me

Taking a tuneful nod from 1960's folk and rock, Brooklyn's Rocketship Park entices musically literate ears. This 5-piece outfit, lead by Josh Kaufman, crafts a range of tactfully entwined styles that weave between back porch ballads and basement tape stomps. Rocketship Park features Kaufman on vocals/guitar, Eric Jackson on guitar, Brian Kantor on drums, Michael Phillips on pedal steel, and Kevin Fish on bass. Onstage is where their songs really shine, in an amalgamated beacon of past and present. While walking the line between tension and liberation, Rocketship Park coaxes volumes from their modest songs. --- aside: Rocketship park is genetically comprised of two members of another brooklyn band called mansfields. Mansfields, just had a song used on a four eyed monsters pod cast...visit www.foureyedmonsters.com and www.myspace.com/mansfields...located below is that very pod cast:
