Meet Chocktaw Rocket

cr

Chocktaw Rocket a fairly new band around town. I’ve seen them twice before. Once, when they made their debut at The Cape Ann Brewery last year and then again at The Dog Bar Cape Ann, about a month ago.

We had the pleasure of hearing them this week at The Rhumb Line’s Monday night open jam . They were the first band to go on to play after The Bandit Kings opened up the evening.

The first song they performed was one that I have never heard before “Everybody’s Gonna Be Happy”.  It was so good that people hit the floor dancing and it seemed they very familiar with the tune.

Their second song was an original that Bill Foley wrote “My Type Of Girl”.  Both songs were lively, fun and great to dance to.

I hope we get to see more of this band around town soon

About Joanne

I am a live music advocate and seek to share the news of bands playing at local venues in my home town. Being drawn to blues mostly but embrace all kinds of music. Funny most people say they do not like rap but I have heard some pretty good stuff from a local band called Da One 8 now know as The Dmus Sound Project. They are a class act. If you see a posting for them check them out and see for yourself. One does not have to go over the bridge to hear some real fine tunes, however there are some bands that draw you elsewhere. I hope this blog is a good use to you as it is to me. Enjoy, Joanne
