Skyrocket!

Skyrocket is an Austin-based live cover band available to book for weddings, private parties and corporate events. The group brings a high-energy performance built around familiar pop and rock favourites, with a repertoire centred on music from the 1970s and 1980s alongside selected newer songs. Its songbook spans hundreds of tracks, and the band can work with organisers to shape a set list around the occasion and the guests.

The seven-piece line-up combines multiple singers with guitars, keyboards, bass and drums. This gives the musicians plenty of vocal and instrumental options for recreating well-known songs and keeping a dance floor moving. The band can provide music for different parts of an event, including dancing, dinner or cocktail-hour playlists, and can pause for speeches, announcements and other moments in the programme. Organisers may also request particular songs, including music for a first dance, and the band can learn selected new songs with advance notice.

Skyrocket typically supplies its own sound system and basic lighting, and can discuss additional lighting needs for larger productions. Optional video visuals can accompany the performance, including during breaks. The band is used to adapting its stage set-up to different spaces, from smaller rooms to large venues, and is available to travel beyond Austin. Booking enquiries for weddings and other private events are handled through its contact representative, who can discuss the event schedule, music choices and production requirements with organisers.
