Jet Pack are a four-piece rock
band erupting from Cheltenham and they’re one of those wonderful rarities that
take your breath away upon impact. Jet Pack have successfully written an
icebreaker that shifts effortlessly from an energetic and gripping introduction
into a more intense chorus, complete with powerful vocals and subtle dramatic
undertones courtesy of singer Dennis Cook. A hard-hitting combination of
rhythmic drum beats and grubby guitar riffs ‘Back To Life’ perfectly and sets
the standard high for the rest of the EP.
If You Me At Six and We Are The
Ocean were to have a lovechild it would be ‘Chasing Sunsets’. It’s the ultimate
blend of alternative rock at its best and it provides a rare opportunity to
give inordinate attention to the diverse abilities of this band - the EP fuses the upbeat and heavier element
of Jet Pack in ‘The Heat Of The Moment’ with the placid and more dulcet nature
of ‘Chasing Sunsets.’ The headlining number is predominantly acoustic which
offers a break from the more vivacious songs on the EP and is perfected by the beautifully
eloquent vocals of Lauren Pyrke that help add to the raw tone of the track and
help extract the emotion that this song deserves.
There are no other words to
describe this band other than exceptionally talented and it’s unsurprising
really – they’ve been around since 2008. With five years of experience under
their belts, the question is not their undoubtable music abilities - it’s how
are they unsigned?
