Tonight I chatted to David, Bex and Jess from ukelele-driven power pop wonders Rocket Kings. The Reading quintet (also featuring…) formed back in 2016 and have recently released their second album, Paving The Way, from which we heard two tracks alongside stories of the album’s recording, memories of Reading Festival and how their musical influences translate to ukeleles. Find Rocket Kings on Bandcamp, Instagram and Facebook.
