About Me

Born from back breaking labor under an unforgiving southern sun, Jet by Day might be the hardest working band in the country. Nine to five jobs as landscapers keep hands and arms taut to rip both life and melody from the primal matter of Georgia's red clay, leaving bodies withered and thirsty for the rejuvenation of booze and rock. Jet by Day uses these same calloused hands to mold their music and performance - their albums expose a deeply rooted underbrush given artistic shape through sweat and will, emphasizing a jagged pop sensibility that owes as much to the southern rock of JBD's fathers as the swaggering prowess of Thin Lizzy; live, technical flash and showmanship clash head to head with the bacchanalian nemesis always hovering above JBD's stage, resulting in physical and raucous shows that recall the glorious disasters of the Replacements.
