Jet have released their first new music in 15 years.
Jet have shared two tracks as a 'little appetiser' for their forthcoming album
The 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl' rockers' fans can now stream 'Hurry Hurry' and the B-side 'Un’avventura’ - after they were previously only available to those lucky enough to buy the sold-out limited edition 7” single they sold on tour in Australia.
Fans attending their shows in the UK, Italy and America will get a chance to buy one of 200 copies, whilst it will go on sale at select retail outlets and can be pre-ordered online via impressedrecordings.com.
The tracks are a "little appetiser" of their upcoming album, the long-awaited follow-up to 2009's 'Shaka Rock'.
Frontman Nic Cester said: "‘Hurry Hurry’ is our first single in 15 years and a little appetiser while we continue to work on our upcoming album. We’ve been playing ‘Hurry Hurry’ live with a great response from our fans in Australia, we’re really looking forward to debuting it live at our overseas shows in Italy, the UK and the US.”
Jet have just kicked off the UK leg of their ‘Get Born’ 20th anniversary tour, with the group playing Glasgow tonight (06.09.24), before heading to Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, Bristol, and London.
The ‘She’s A Genius’ band reunited in 2017 after five years apart to support Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band on their summer tour and they followed that up with a 15th anniversary tour of their debut album 'Get Born' in 2018.
Nic admitted the concerts were a very therapeutic experience for him and the rest of the band - lead guitarist Cameron Muncey, bassist Mark Wilson and drummer Chris Cester, who is also the singer's brother - because Jet ended in 2012 in a sea of bitterness and alcohol and drugs as they fell into all the rock 'n' roll pitfalls.
The songwriter told BANG Showbiz at the time: "I think the problems in Jet were the combination of a few things. The relationships between us were all awful, we were all tired, and we were drinking too much and taking a lot of drugs and making bad choices. We went through all the clichés. We very much became a cliché of ourselves in the end, I guess that's why for me the answer was to completely walk away and rebuild from the ground up."
