JET



Meet the JET!!
A rock band from Melbourne, Australia, composed of Nic Chester (vocals, rhythm guitar, piano), Cameron Muncey (lead guitar, backing vocals), Mark Wilson (bass guitar, keyboards, harmonica), and Chris Cester (drums, percussion, backing vocals, guitar).
The group has sold 4 million records worldwide; Get Born (2003), Rare Tracks (2004), Shine On (2006), and last, my favourite, Shaka Rock (2009).

The first single I've listen from this amazing band is 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl' from the album Get Born. And it is an amazing single.


And also, I just known that they are also active in social charity.
I got this from Wikipedia:
The Fred Hollows Foundation
In May 2008, Jet released a video clip on YouTube paying tribute to the work of the late Fred Hollows. Lead singer Nic Cester says he wanted to highlight that Professor Hollow's work to restore sight to the cataract blind in developing countries was ongoing 15 years after his death. "Fred Hollows was such a big figure in Australia and he had a huge impact, but he passed away when there was still work to do," Cester said in a statement. "This clip is a bit of a reminder, hopefully it encourages people to make a donation to keep Fred's work going." The video tribute features Jet's hit song "Shine On" along with images compiled by The Fred Hollows Foundation.
In 2007, Jet signed a petition which called for an end to Canada's annual seal hunt.
