Make your
next event a "BLAST"
with the ROCKETMEN!
The ROCKETMEN take you back to the late
1950's
with their authentic
sounds, gear and looks from a style that was arguably the most
influential and most fun in roots Rock and Roll history! Playing all
styles of roots music from New Orleans to Memphis; Fats Domino, Little
Richard to Carl Perkins, Eddie Cochran to Chuck Berry; to the R&B
stylings of Hank Ballard, James Brown & Ray Charles. THE ROCKETMEN
have it covered. Separately the band has a very impressive history.
They have all played on the music circuit in various bands for over 20
years.
Local guitarist &
vocalist BILL HUNT was in the house band at the Stanhope House. That
band backed up a lot of the Chicago blues men that came thru NJ. He
shared the stage with Buddy Guy, Pinetop Perkins, Snooky Pryor, Little
Charlie & the Nitecats, Charlie Musselwhite, and Steve Guyger, to name
a few.
British pianist JOHN
HAWKEN came over from England during the British invasion in the 60's.
He played with The Nashville Teens who had a number one hit
'TOBACCO ROAD",
The Strawbs &
Rennasance. He shared the stages with most of the touring rock stars
of the 1950's & 60's. He toured with Chuck Berry and also played piano
