Review:
With vocals and guitars like this, it is almost a wonder of the world that Parting Jets For Jazzmen aren’t already huge. Catchy songs, solid production, nuanced and passionate musicianship, and a sound you can believe in, all mark this band for success. Siting influences like Lyndsay Lohan and Hillary Duff, I get the sense that they don’t take themselves too seriously, but it’s obvious they have an adolescent obsession with their instruments, which breaks through their performances like writing on the wall.
Troy Cawthon’s vox is very lightly reminiscent of Patrick Stump (Fallout Boy,) making his sound familiar but not used. This balance beam he plays on with deft melodicism that instantly requires attention, and builds excitement in the listener, (at least when I’m the listener.)
Check out Miss Denial. The guitarist shows a great command of the instrument and a sense of melody to rival the vocals, making each next moment possibly a favorite. The sense of ensemble in the band is tangible, as you can hear in moments of break down in this song; their sense of space is as keen as the sense of melody.
On top of all this, they have a sweet looking logo. I’m genuinely excited to share this band with my friends, and even more excited to hear more from them.
