The Rocketeers

The Rocketeers are a hip-hop duo from Indianapolis, Indiana and Chicago, Illinois. The duo consists of Darius "D-Win" Windfield (from Indianapolis, IN) and Lance "Johnny Rocket" Howard (Chicago, IL). The two met randomly at a bus stop about a year and a half ago in Chicago. D-Win had just left work and got on the bus when he overheard Johnny Rocket talking to his sister. He was saying, "Man I wish I had some artists to work with musically." When D-Win heard this, he decided to hook up with Johnny Rocket to form the group The Rocketeers. The Rocketeers have done shows at The Funky Buddah Lounge, Fiesta Cantina, Dusable Museum and Columbia College in Chicago, IL; Florida Memorial University in Miami Gardens, Florida; Club Spin and Ugly Monkey in Indianapolis, IN. The Rocketeers get their musical inspiration from groups like N.E.R.D, C.R.S, Outkast, and Gnarles Barkley.
