Today JET have revealed the news that fans have long been waiting for – they have commenced work on a new album, set for release in 2025, their first studio album in more than15 years.
Ahead of this long player comes an exclusive 7” single to whet the appetite – titled Hurry Hurry (Australian Tour Edition). It’s a song that has met with a great response from audiences across the country, the band unveiling it at recent live shows.
The B-side of the single is a song called Un’avventura, a cover of a cover: Wilson Pickett’s version of Un’avventura performed by Lucio Battisti at the 1969 Sanremo Music Festival. It’s sung in half Italian/half English and is a nod to front man Nic Cester’s time spent living in Italy over the last 15 years.
JET said, “It’s time… we’re pretty excited to tell you that we’re working on a new JET album, due for release in 2025. As a little taste of what’s to come, we’re putting out a limited edition 7” vinyl single for our fans, the song is called “Hurry Hurry”.
“These 7” vinyls are super limited and will be available at our upcoming Australian shows, if you can’t make a show, there will be a small number of coloured vinyl available via www.jetofficial.com from May 9.”
Both Hurry Hurry and Un’avventura will be available via streaming services in the near future but in the meantime, Jet fans should join the mailing list at jetoffical.com to receive a free digital download of Hurry Hurry at midnight on Wednesday, May 8. This new single will also be available at each of their May/June shows, and can be picked up as limited edition coloured 7” vinyl through Impressed Recordings – available to purchase until sold out, via the band’s website from May 9 – head to www.jetofficial.com.
Following sold out GET BORN: 20TH ANNIVERSARY shows last year, the band has launched the Extended Edition – taking in cities and regional centres through May and June, that they couldn’t reach last year. Check them out at a location near you!
