Jets Overhead just released Bystander, a six-song digital EP on the Vapor label consisting of songs the Canadian quintet recorded during the sessions for 20092s No Nations. The band, which over the past two years has played festivals such as Coachella, Sasquatch and Bonnaroo and has had its music appear in TV shows like House [...]
Top 4 ways to keep that summertime adrenaline pumping: ☛ Jets Overhead have jetted in from Canada — that's their new video for "I Should Be Born," above — and since I've advocated for them before, I'll do it again. They play the Roxy on a KROQ Locals Only bill (hmm, KROQ now reaches all the way to Vancouver? That's impressive) with true locals Italian Japanese , Sea of Cortez and Sabrosa Purr . Good bill, and to celebrate, here's a download of "I Should Be Born." [...]
Filed under: Video , Exclusive Kandle Osborne When Jets Overhead went to make a video for 'I Should Be Born,' their latest single from 2009's 'No Nations,' singer Antonia Freybe-Smith already had something in mind for her role. "I had the idea of just sitting in the ocean, singing," she tells Spinner. "I love being in the water." The band brought director Jeremy Lutter onboard and, after fleshing out the initial idea, they began filming in [...]
Wow, where do I even start? The whole weekend is just a complete blur now. I'm going to need the whole day to just sit here and unwind. It was amazing, hot, cold, uncomfortable, rainy, sunny, expensive and yet somehow still totally worth every penny. Saturday -A few hundred people have arrived and the mood is one of general relaxing for one of the first acts, Shabazz Palaces. I missed Dawes, so I don't know how that went. I strayed from the main stage a little bit, but they have a pretty [...]
G is for Goldenvoice. G is for all the grousing I heard about the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival lineup when it was announced three months ago (all but silenced now). G is for all the grumbling about the festival's new policy to not sell one-day passes (still hearing that). And G is for gee whiz, despite its detractors, the damned thing sold out — the number of three-day passes I heard was 75,000. Coachella 2010 kicks off Friday with quite possibly its deepest lineup ever, with a smattering of rock stars, a [...]
On the countdown today is Friday band Jets Overhead, a band that most notably as of recent played the winter olympics. More like it: COACHELLA COUNTDOWN: 3 strikes left COACHELLA COUNTDOWN - 11 Days to go COACHELLA COUNTDOWN - 14 Days to go

The Canadian producer Arturo found us earlier through a spectacular soundscape entitled Transcendence . It's pretty impressive. Recently the Victoria-native turned towards refining others in some light disco remixes. Islomania remains my favourite and holds onto the light, dreamy disco vibe that Arturo captures so brilliantly. Check myspace for more. ♫ The Racoons - Islomania (Arturo Remix) [...]

Whaaaa?!? It's barely February and you guys are already talking SXSW ? You bet your ass we are! Now still a little over a month or so away, we wanted to kick off our SXSW watchlist bands this year with Victoria, BC band Jets Overhead . Hailing from the great white north, you can hear the obvious Stars / Metric / Broken Social Scene influences that run deep in the sounds of this band. Of course the ATH loves those sounds! Not to write them off as just another Canadian atmospheric rock band, [...]
So a funny thing happened today... the annual Coachella lineup came out and people aren't even pissed. What gives? Wherefore the bile? Oh, wait, I see... it actually looks really good this year... (Click to Embiggen!) Yes, there is a lot to like up there. But there's also... and I'm pretty sure this means I'm as "out of touch" as Hall & Oates... more bands than ever that I have never heard of. This looks [...]

![Jets Overhead: No Nations [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2179197_lg.jpg)
Jets Overhead could have easily been around 15 years ago. They would have made a few slacker movie soundtracks alongside the likes of The Jesus and Mary Chain (who, if you remember, were on EVERY soundtrack back then). But, there is also the likelihood they would have faded into nostalgic memory and became a simple novelty for FM radio. Thankfully, their old school and easy paced alternative album No Nations is only now shedding light. Original Soul Asylum fans are now in their forties. Scary, sure - but, this band will make [...]
