Low, soft thumpy sounds, but also beautiful and tuneful melodies. Conceived by local synth sorcerer Michael Rocketship, the band features some of NY’s finest improvisors. Sara Schoenbeck – bassoon, Sam Kulik – bass trombone, Ivan Arteaga – bass clarinet, Sarah Galdes – drums and of course, Rocketship himself on his favorite instrument, the Korg Mono/Poly.
