About Jaguar Jets:

Jaguar Jets, (“Cosmic Rockabilly Surf from the Great Northwest”) are J. “Mr. Goessl” Goessl (guitar) and J. B. “Jasper McCann” McIlvain (vocals).  The project was formed in summer of 2021, after the Covid-19 pandemic caused the dissolution of their previous project, The Pornadoes.  After five years, a large catalogue of original work, and numerous performances, the realities of managing numerous diverse commitments became too much to bear for the original members of the band.  Goessl (who during the pandemic returned to his native Wisconsin) and McIlvain, decided to switch to a more nimble creative approach focused on remote recording and collaboration.  Now backed with an rhythm player arsenal of some of the greatest jazz musicians in the Northwest and Midwest (including original Pornadoes’ bassist Ethan Sabotta, Seattle percussion virtuoso Eric Eagle, and Wisconsin jazz luminary Michael Underwood), Jaguar Jets are will continue to establish themselves as a truly dynamic, lean, and versatile touring ensemble who can deliver the hard-edged precision necessary for the more elaborate jazz-influenced writing of Jaguar Jets' rockabilly surf charts.  Jaguar Jets will be releasing recently-recorded material soon and is actively working on a new studio album and a Midwestern tour slated for Summer of 2023.  Jaguar Jets are committed to bringing Cosmic Rockabilly Surf to music lovers everywhere, delivering an exciting retro sound with modern sensibilities and virtuosity.
