About The Jets
The Jets are a family band formed when their father brought home instruments and initiated the group to support the family. Their oldest brother, who was musically talented, taught the siblings to play by ear after taking only two weeks of piano lessons. The group learned songs by taping music off the radio, with their brother teaching each member their parts. Inspired by family acts like the Osmonds and the Jacksons, they aspired to achieve similar success.
