SKYROCKET!

SKYROCKET! plays 3TEN Austin City Limits Live on Saturday, September 26, at 8 PM. They're a cover band built around 70s rock and pop, and their setlists pull from a wide range of that era: Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac sit alongside Blondie, ABBA, INXS, Roy Orbison, the Bee Gees and BJ Thomas. It's a broad sweep of the decade, running from psych-rock and soft rock to disco and pop.

There are a few things that set them apart from your typical cover act. Each band member plays several instruments throughout the night, and they have multiple singers fronting the show rather than one lead. The lead guitarist moves between playing, singing and small wardrobe changes, a bit of stagecraft that keeps the audience engaged.

If you're into the 70s, the variety is the point. You'll hear the moody, atmospheric side of Pink Floyd and the melodic pop of ABBA in the same set, with Fleetwood Mac and the Bee Gees somewhere in between. It's a long list of names that rarely share a bill, and the band puts them all in one night. The show is at 3TEN Austin City Limits Live on Saturday, September 26, starting at 8 PM.
