We started recording our next EP recently though it won't be out for a while yet as we're continuing to promote Heart Is Black both in the US and UK. The response has been good so far with the EP getting decent airplay on college radio, charting across the US at various stations and making a few 'Best of 2008' lists.

International Jetsetters Christmas Party will be tonight at The Ben Jonson Pub, Weston on the Green, Oxfordshire. To mark this special festive occasion we'll be doing a special number from the mists of time. It will be both special and festive though you will never in a million years guess the song.

Our favourite music magazine Nightshift has just published its December issue containing its Top 20 songs of the year and we've made the list with 'Never Slows Down':

HEART IS BLACK, our debut release, is out today on i-tunes.

We would also like to say huge thanks to all the people who packed in to the Ben Jonson last night for our launch party. It was a great night!

Come and see us next time at the Academy on November 22nd.

The Band: International Jetsetters : Who ? An Oxford-based five piece band formed by singer and guitarist Mark Crozer and bass player Bert Audubert. They were joined by Loz Colbert (formerly of Ride and who also had been working with Mark, initially in Jim Reid’s band and more recently in the reformed Jesus and Mary Chain.) The line up was completed with the addition of Mark’s younger brother Paul as a second guitarist and local singer Fi McCall…

The Cellar

Shoegazing was a term of description offered almost as a piss-take of bands the music press of the early-90s considered to be somewhat lacking in charisma, hiding their dearth of star quality behind vast walls of turbulent guitar drones as they studiously avoided eye-contact with their audience.

The Oxford music scene magazine Nightshift had this to say about us after our appearance at the Oxford Punt music festival:

It's no exaggeration to say that INTERNATIONAL JETSETTERS hitting the stage at all, never mind on time and in front of a packed house, is a minor miracle. They have pedigree, which shows in their mature songwriting and sophisticated sound, oddly reminiscent of Sisters Of Mercy without the goth baggage, and better haircuts. One of the bands tonight most likely to make waves, and true to their name they fly off to New York the next day.
