Josh Kaufman makes songs that are hard to forget about. Ultra-melodic, lush, cinema-scope folk-pop about family, life, loss. Tinges of country, Dylan, big hooks.

First album Off and Away was 2008.
Second album Cakes and Cookies is 2010. Hear "It's Not You."

"I was blown away!...Their sound is melodic (with actual sung harmony, which seems rare these days), twangy, laid back and kind of reminiscent of early Neil Young. It's good music to feel bad to...I particularly enjoyed whatever whiskey-soaked lament that started, 'Your drinking buddies are your drinking buddies — don't get used to that.' So true."
Emily Hulme, AM NY's AM/FM blog

"...a pretense and angst-free version of Wilco with big sunny hooks, swooping pedal steel, and an earnest, good-natured everyman behind the mike. Add a little down-home psychedelia with the chiming guitars, some folk-rock in the vocal harmonies, and you get Beachwood Sparks without the beach"
Tim Sendra, the AllMusicGuide blog

"Rocketship Park blew us away. Their country rock sound was just what we wanted to hear and the pedal steel guitar through most of set was especially gorgeous sounding."
StereoactiveNYC

"When Rocketship Park’s unassuming frontman, Josh Kaufman, sings, “Let’s slip away into the night,” you can imagine listening to him during a late-summer evening in the country with your sweetheart by your side."
Pop Matters

"With a pedal steel guitarist on one side of the stage and a pianist on the other, Rocketship Park delivered an outstanding set, stretching to the full limits of their sound from old-school Patsy Cline country to alternative rock’n’roll."
