Cola Jet Set

En esta pista ya no se puede bailar [2009]

ER-275 Single 7"

Since the release of their second album last February, their Guitarras y tambores (guitars and tambor drums) haven’t stopped for a single second. They participated in the 30th anniversary party for the radio show Flor de Pasión (RNE-Radio 3); they were COOPER’s special guests for the presentation of COOPER’s new album, “Aeuropuerto”, in Madrid and Bilbao; they performed at some of the most important festivals in Spain (Indyspensable, Contempopranea, Fuengirola Pop Weekend...) and they traveled to England to perform in London and at the Indietracks Festival.

COLA JET SET are releasing a limited edition single, a color vinyl with the A side “En Esta Pista Ya No Se Puede Bailar” and two new songs on the B side; “Nos Volveremos a Ver”, is a spot-on Spanish adaptation of the 1939 classic written by Ross Parker and Hughie Charles, “We’ll Meet Again”, which became one of the most popular songs during the second world war. The song has seen many versions throughout the years by many different artists, from Vera Lynn, who had a huge hit with it in 1954, to THE BYRDS, who included it as the final track on their 1965 debut album, “Mr. Tambourine Man”. But that’s not all THE TURTLES, THE CHORDETTES, Sandy Coast and even Johnny Cash himself did versions of the song, and now it’s COLA JET SET’s turn, a small gem for the B side of this new vinyl single that will also include a new song by Alicia, “Cola Jet Set 100%”, a declaration of intent. White vinyl!

Marc and Joel (The Hands Collective) did an extraordinary job directing the group’s video-clip, where they shine like true pop stars, playing, singing and dancing with a ton of friends.

Guitarras y tambores [2009]

ER-1141 CD Digipak / LP

It has been a long wait, but we can finally enjoy the new, long-awaited album from COLA JET SET; it is the second in their career and their first with Elefant. The time, in addition to definitively solidifying the line-up of Ana (LA MONJA ENANA), Felipe (LOS FRESONES REBELDES, LES TRÈS BIEN ENSEMBLE), Joan, Alicia and Cristina (LOS FRESONES REBELDES), has also allowed the group to purify its sound, bringing it closer to a classic pop with clear sixties influences (Jackie De Shannon, THE RONETTES, THE BYRDS...) but they have also enriched it with small stylistic intoxications that came up along the way: soul, disco, psychedelic pop, soft-pop… Because of all this, the album is classic pop through and through. Its melodies and arrangements are inspired by the greats of the genre. Its freshness and vitality take charge on an album full of emotions. But above all, pop isn’t itself if it isn’t perverted by other styles, other influences, other horizons. Let’s celebrate, then, that COLA JET SET have come back to stay and to definitively be one of the best pop groups in Spanish that has come out of this country.

There´s a limited edition of this album for vinyl lovers. [Pink Panther colour vinyl]
