Sun Rocket

More rocket science from Ireland’s drummer of the moment, and this time the controls are set for the heart of the sun, with an emphasis on infectious swinging music.

Sean Carpio follows up critically acclaimed outings for his Red and White Rocket projects with yet another new direction and new personnel, this time with guitarist Steve McFarlane and bassist Cormac O’Brien. Sun Rocket pays tribute to the spirit of the great Jaki Byard, through the music of Thelonious Monk, Herbie Nichols and Louie Armstrong.
