Sons of Martha’s Skyrocket – The Power-Pop Rush With Big Charm

Another Hit from the Night Shift

Digging through the daily findings is a gamble – sometimes you strike gold. What did I find today? Full jackpot. Fresh sound, bright chords, and the kind of magnetic pull that turns a simple track into a late-night companion. Sons of Martha are back, and Skyrocket is burning through the skyline with jangly guitars, sharp hooks, and a restless heartbeat.

Released on July 4th, this single leans into that unmistakable London indie spark: clean melodies, emotional lyrics, and just enough shimmer to make you feel like you’re chasing something genuinely fresh. It’s got the momentum of that midnight drive and the optimism of someone with nothing to prove, but everything to feel.

Momentum, Heart, and a Flicker of Optimism

Skyrocket was built for those moments when you’re one step ahead of regret, but two steps behind your next big idea. And I know you’ve been there. According to songwriter Josh Beach, this one “came from a place of optimism and restlessness”. Well, you can hear it. But it’s not a loud anthem. It’s that kind of tune that tags along quietly and starts to mean something when the streets get empty and the sky’s too clear to ignore.

There’s a tenderness threaded through the rhythm, but it doesn’t drift into sadness. It walks fast, like it’s got somewhere better to be. The lyrics hold a quiet gravity, while the instrumentation keeps everything light enough to lift off. Guitars shimmer, vocals glide, and that jazzy-power-pop feeling. The whole thing moves like a deep breath turned into sound.

The Dreamers Behind the Sound

The band leans into instinct, crafting tracks that stick without trying too hard. And Skyrocket sticks around in your headphones for a little longer than expected. And behind that name? Five minds making it happen: Josh Beach, Tim Buckland, Stephen Morgan, King Otto, and Steven Spencer.

This is the same band that dropped Samurai Smile a few months back – a track haunted by folklore and thick with groove. And if that one was the moody side of the moon, Skyrocket is the walk home just before the sun goes down. It’s got heart, movement, and a kind of hope that just shows up without making a scene.

One Track’s Not Enough

Skyrocket feels like one of those rare songs that shows you exactly where a band is heading without shouting about it. Sons of Martha are building something – track by track, feeling by feeling – and you can sense it all taking shape if you’re really listening. Stream Skyrocket on Spotify, dig through their back catalog, or stalk Sons of Martha wherever your thumbs take you – Instagram, YouTube, or maybe that dusty link labelled Official Website.
