JET RED released their self-titled abum in 1989. They rocked Northern California from then until the early 1990's. After seeing their amazing live show, I was and still am a fan. Willie Hines, lead singer, guitarist, and song writer, is an amazing performer. This band was as tight as any hard rockin' band at the time. The twin guitar sound of Johnny Feikert and Willie Hines coupled with the driving bass of Brad Lang was accented by their superb vocals to give a lush, melodic rock sound that is sorely missing in today's rock scene. Their press kits tell it all but hear it for yourself..
Sadly, their record label, Relativity Records, did little to promote the band or the album and they had to finally call it a day. They disbanded not as enemies but as friends that realized that the music scene had changed and they were on the outside looking in (thank you grunge music....). But do not despair as Willie Hines continues to make music. His first solo project was a natural extension from his past. This first solo album is available on compact disc and is well worth the money. Willie put together the Willie Hines Band and started playing live gigs here and there as well as working on another album.
The big news is that the long awaited second JET RED album is to be released in Fall 2009. The album will be entitled "Flight Plan" and will include a bonus live DVD for those who missed out on see Jet Red live. More details to follow in the NEWS section. Please check back often and tell your friends. If your neighbor's aren't complaining, it's not loud enough...............
Peace-
