The Current: Live at South by Southwest

The Mystery Jets - live from South by Southwest

March 17, 2006

Hailing from Eel Pie Island in the south of England, Mystery Jets put on quite a lively show. They like to incorporate such outlandish objects as hubcaps, colanders and suitcases into performance, whanging away on anything that makes just the right sound.

Austin, TX — Layering on the vocal harmonies and infectious melodies, this group fuses its elements into a pleasing mess of indie rock happiness. Mystery Jets released "Making Dens," their first full-length, earlier this month.

Songs performed: "Zoo Time," "You Can't Fool Me Dennis," and "Diamonds in the Dark."
