Worldly Los Straitjackets launch Jet Set

The new Jet Set (Yep Roc) album from Los Straitjackets is a collection of 14 carefully crafted guitar-driven songs that prove to be the most diverse and inventive of Los Straitjackets’ oeuvre. Jet Set also marks the return of Danny Amis (Daddy-O Grande) to the band after recovering from a difficult battle with Multiple Myeloma. The album was recorded at The Pow Wow Fun Room studios in Los Angeles with producer and friend Janne Haavisto (of Laika And The Cosmonauts) and includes a few guest appearances by The Basic Cable Horns (from Conan O'Brien's Conan show on TBS) and Finnish actress and musician Irina Bjorklund. Jet Set delivers the high-energy rock and roll instrumental music fans have come to expect from Los Straitjackets. And there's more...



The Yep Roc Store is offering Los Straitjackets fans the chance to order Jet Set on CD or 180 gram vinyl LP along with special limited bundles including a t-shirt, shot glass, or Jet Set “flight wings” with the album – check out Yep Roc's site for details.

Happy Birthday Danny Amis!
