We Were Promised Jetpacks

Scotland's We Were Promised Jetpacks delivers impassioned indie-rock bombast. Led by Adam Thompson, these youngsters are like a rowdier version of Fat Cat labelmates the Twilight Sad. The Edinburgh indie-rock quartet tours behind a brand-new disc, E Rey—Live in Philadelphia. Fellow Scots Honeyblood, the duo of Shona McVicar and Stina Marie Claire Tweeddale, open with jangly, lo-fi rock.
