60's flavored, ORIGINAL, rock and roll from San Francisco. Kind of garage, kind of power pop -- think Kinks, Beatles, early Stones. Mostly upbeat, always fun.

THE JET SET: 60's flavored ORIGINAL rock and roll from San Francisco. What's it sound like?

"...co-produced by Chris Von Sneidern (a stamp of quality in and of itself), this San Francisco foursome run a diverse course of sounds; mod/power pop, Flamin Groovies and The Animals - like R&B, and *lots* of the power pop punch of Paul Collins The Beat, The Plimsouls and The Knack. Theres a Stones-y root element to the updated sounds here. While its all burning up a feverish state, the sugary hooks and slashing tight melodies cut like a Ginzu knife. Youthful and un-self-conscious, this is refreshing, unpretentious music that is very appealing to power pop fans. Clean riffs and power chords galore make this a very, very satisfying and filling collection of San Francisco Power Pop! Extremely Highly Recommended."
-Bruce Brodeen, Not Lame Recordings

Praise for THE JET SET's first CD, Something's Going On:

"THE JET SET's riveting refrains and unapologetic attitude provide a certain charm that's undeniably appealing... Truth be told, every now and then they are capable of something simple yet profound. Take this tidbit from "You're So Cool," You're so cool, you're cold." Simple, yet succinct, these sentiments send The Jet Set soaring."
-Lee Zimmerman, Goldmine Magazine, April 2004
