ABOUT

Long Island gave birth to an abundance of musical talent, notably Billy Joel, and the multi-platinum band The Stray Cats. With the desire to showcase the music that has been a part of mainstream radio for audiences of all ages around the world, now comes Long Island's new atomic rock band: The Smokin Rockets!

Founding member, Johnny Lemmon (guitar/vocals) has performed internationally in the pop music scene for more than 30 years with The Merseybeat, a long-standing tribute band to The Beatles, which has graced the stage for audiences worldwide. As an entertainer, guitar player, and a singer of 50's & 60's Rock, Pop and Surf, he’s a tone junkie that loves eclectic music others won’t attempt to play.

Johnny’s been blessed to perform in many television and radio shows, arena concerts, and famous stages worldwide. Some venue highlights include, The Cavern Club in Liverpool, WCBS-FM featuring radio personality Cousin Brucie, and WWOR-TV (UPN), just to name a few. Along with playing famous stages worldwide with his own music projects, Johnny has also accompanied many legendary music icons.
