Anglo-american indie supergroup Jetstream Pony (consisting of former and current members of Luxemburg Signal, The Wedding Present, Turbocat and Trembling Blue Stars) have revealed their new single “Into The Sea” and its accompanying video.
The song is taken from their upcoming 7″ double A-side single “Sixes and Sevens” / “Into the Sea”, due to be released on 30th September through Spinout Nuggets. Pre-order it here.
Jetstream Pony is a mix of indie-pop, power pop and schrammelig post-punk (schrammelig is a German word meaning rough or unrefined music), but also so much more. The band features Beth Arzy on vocals and percussion, Shaun Charman on guitar and vocals, Kerry Boettcher on bass and Hannes Mueller on drums.
Their latest mini-album ‘Misplaced Words’ arrived in December 2021, developing the sound from the debut with a balance between indie-pop and something darker. The band celebrated 2022 with gigs in Germany, France, Spain and Portugal as well as the UK, and they are now back with a new double A-side 7” single, taking the sound even further.
‘Sixes and Sevens’ makes the most of Beth’s wonderful voice, with echoing guitars and thick heavy bass, a hymn to the Medway. While ‘Into the Sea’ sees Shaun take lead vocals for the first time, with Beth and Kerry providing the harmonies to a more brooding sound.
