Touring
During performances, The Rocket Summer consists of Bryce Avary, Stevie Benz on guitar, and A.J. Novak on drums.
The Rocket Summer has toured the US, Canada, the UK, France and Japan, and has played at festivals such as Glastonbury Festival, Summer Sonic Festival, Austin City Limits, SXSW, The Bamboozle, and the 2007 and 2010 Vans Warped Tour. The Rocket Summer has been confirmed to play at the Slam Dunk Festival at Hertfordshire and Leeds University, at the end of May 2010.
In August 2010, Avary announced he would be going on a nationwide headlining tour of the US where he will be playing completely solo, telling stories, looping songs and playing acoustic versions of many songs he has written. The tour is called "The Rocket Summer: Bryce Avary, His Instruments and Your Voices." There are talks of each night being recorded to possibly go on a future live album of the tour.
In September 2010, Avary confirmed that The Rocket Summer would be joining the annual Australian music festival Soundwave in 2011 which tours the country's capital cities. He played two sideshows with Third Eye Blind in Sydney and Melbourne.
On February 16, 2012, Switchfoot announced on their Facebook page that The Rocket Summer would be touring with the band on their Spring 2012 tour.
