\"Rainy<\/a><\/p>\n

As they gear up to go on a sold out national tour with All Time Low and City Comma State the band A Rocket To The Moon recently released The Rainy Day Sessions, a short EP of acoustic songs and covers, making a perfect day when the weather is not-so-perfect. <\/p>\n

Like We Used To-By far my favorite ARTTM song has been perfected in this acoustic version. The vocals are highlighted and the whole song flows in such a way that it's perfect to just set it on repeat for hours.<\/p>\n

Baby Blue Eyes-The thing that's great about this EP is how soft the music has become. Although the original is well done, the guitar is a little too rough to just be able to listen and relax. The rainy day version however is soft and therefore any age group could enjoy it. A Rocket To The Moon is that band that parents and their kids can all listen to together and enjoy all the same.<\/p>\n

Single Ladies-Everyone knows the smash club hit by Beyonce, just last night I heard it at a festival, a wedding and then at a school dance function. The thing is, I've listened so many times but never really focused on the verse lyrics until ARTTM covered it. Trying to choose between the two is a no brainer. Rocket wins.<\/p>\n

Mr. Right-This track on the EP is probably the most different from the original On Your Side. Taking away the electric guitar and drums puts more focus on Nick Santino's voice and highlights the talent that got the band noticed in the first place. The planning for the track-listing is truly superb in terms of arrangement and is the perfect mix for any rainy day. <\/p>\n

On A Lonely Night-The guest vocals of Larkin Poe shine brightest on the last track, especially with the harmonizing of the chorus. On A Lonely Night is the fastest track on the EP and gives the most energy to the listener, lifting their spirit before they start listening to it all over again.<\/p>\n
