| Today, the legendary Jefferson Starship release their first new material in 5 years. “Jetpack” has been a feature of the bands recent live performances and was first showcased while on tour this summer at London’s Wembley Arena. The explosive new single is already on its way to becoming a new fan favourite. Driving lead guitars by Jude Gold combined with an instantly memorable melody from powerhouse vocalist, Cathy Richardson, will see the single added to the bands enviable catalogue of hits! The band are currently working on a new studio album with a release date tbc. The single can be streamed HERE A lyric video is available HERE Cathy Richardson says, “Jude had written a song around the chorus that was kind of a love song about wanting to disappear with someone into the cosmos. He asked me to take a stab at some different lyrics. I loved the music and the hook was really strong. I thought about why I would want to strap on a rocket and blast off the planet, and the words just came spilling out. We recorded it a while ago with a different ending, but then I had an idea for an outro, and I really wanted to hear the band jam out over that chord progression and go to space musically.” 2025 saw the legendary Jefferson Starship coming off their successful 50th Anniversary Tour. Keeping the celebratory momentum alive, the band played dates across North America and Europe through 2026 – including their first UK dates in over 10 years (as support to Foreigner). Currently, the band continues touring North America with Deep Purple, as well as headlining their own “Runaway Again” tour. Adding a special connection to the band’s history, “Jetpack” features longtime Jefferson Starship bassist Pete Sears on bass, bringing another direct link between the band’s celebrated past and its music today. |
