Team Rocket can refer to one of two groups: [1] a rap collective from Bothell, WA or [2] Swedish rockband formed in 2005, by singer Frankie Vanceman and guitarist Waylon Brutus.
[1] The rap collective consists of producer/rapper Dr. Gray and rappers Greazy, Trill Will, Jack Dani, Chief Keethan, and Karate Kidd. Their first song, "Blast Off", became immensely popular at their high school which prompted them to make more tracks and release their mixtape, also titled "Blast Off", in 2013.
All of the beats on their first mixtape are produced by Dr Gray and draw inspiration from trap and house music.
They have collaborated on tracks with local rappers like Team Cream and Jay Rights . They are currently working on new material and playing shows across the greater Seattle area.
[2] In early 2007, their début album called "Team Rocket" was finished and is a blend of hard-rock, and more straightforward rock in vein with bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers and U2.
Current members of the band is Frankie Vanceman (vocals/guitar), Waylon Brutus (lead guitar), Örvin Fluff (synthesizer) and sadly enough, a currently unnamed base player. Former members Angus Basehunter (base guitar) and Lenny Drumsnubb (Drums) quit the band in the winter of 2006 due to differences in musical style. The band is currently looking for a drummer to replace Lenny.
As of the summer 2007, the band is not signed to any record label, and is struggling to find a drummer. New songs are being written, and they might possibly begin playing shows in the fall of 2007.
