Ampeater has delivered another exquisitely written review of some Serious Business. This time up on the golden pedestal is Josh Kaufman’s ROCKETSHIP PARK. This year’s Cakes and Cookies has quietly become a favorite for most of those who’ve come in contact with it’s sweet, melty core. Read here and download the digital 7” combo of “Swan” (“a small masterpiece”) and “See You,” (“Kaufman delights!”) two highlights from the record.
Rocketship Park recently convened at Serious Business Music Recording Studio in NYC to record an episode of BreakThru Radio’s Live Studio franchise. This particular lineup included Yellowbirds’ Sam Cohen and Thieving Irons’ Nate Martinez and had never before played together but you wouldn’t know it from the way they owned Josh’s beautiful songs. BTR host Maia MacDonald sat down for an extended interview with Josh and Travis where you’ll get some insight on the new RP record Cakes and Cookies and all Josh’s endeavors.
