Mitch Rocket 🚀

Mitch Rocket is a sax-forward indie rock quintet from San Francisco, CA. They specialize in a style they’ve dubbed “Yacht Grunge,” which mixes the jazz chords of Steely Dan and Stevie Wonder with the overdriven angst of Smashing Pumpkins and Soundgarden. From its humble beginnings as a solo bedroom project, Mitch Rocket has grown into full-fledged, rip-roaring 5-piece rock band with the addition of a crack team of veteran Bay Area musicians. The band is led by songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Mitch Rocket, who writes thoughtful, jazz-inflected songs which the band brings to life with technicolor detail. Since June 2021, the Mitch Rocket band has been electrifying audiences around the Bay Area with a setlist that ranges from folk rock to ska to free jazz.

Mitch Rocket premiered their debut album Petting Zoo to the world at the legendary San Francisco venue Bottom of the Hill in late 2021. March 2023 saw the release of a live EP taken from the band's performance at San Jose's Art Boutiki in 2022. In July 2023, Mitch Rocket released the single Worry Less," which attracted favorable national and international press and quickly became their most-streamed song to date. They followed it up with Dirty and Wrong (Fuck You Jeff Bezos), an anti-billionaire, anti-Trump singalong that has been a highlight of live shows for years and is available online at long last. 

The Mitch Rocket band is Alan Onymous - Drums, Jazzy Geoff McConohy - Alto Saxophone/Keyboard, Milky Mike - Bass, Oscar Garcia - Lead Guitar, and Mitch Rocket - Vocals/Guitar/Alto Saxophone. The band members are involved in a number of other Bay Area projects including your Fearless Leader, PVJR, Bromf, Pilár, and Country Risqué.
