Stone Jets, a London-based band with a multi-national makeup, has been turning heads with their unique blend of soul-centric songs infused with pop sensibilities. The trio, consisting of Given on bass and vocals, Manfred on guitar, and Adrien on drums and vocals, brings together a rich tapestry of influences and experiences. Originating from Cape Town, South Africa, and Lyon, France, the band members met in England and quickly found a shared rhythm that has propelled them onto stages at renowned festivals like Glastonbury, Underneath The Stars, and Wilderness. Their sound is both familiar and fresh, a seamless blend of their diverse backgrounds and the vibrant energy of their adopted city.
Their latest single, “Moving On,” is a testament to the band’s ability to capture the nuances of life’s inevitable transformations. Inspired by the relentless cycles of nature and the idea that change comes when it is most needed, “Moving On” is more than just a song; it’s a reflection of the band’s journey. As each member of Stone Jets navigated their move to London, they were forced to confront and shed personal limitations that had once served as life-preservers. The fast-paced, ever-changing environment of London became a catalyst for growth, pushing the band to evolve both personally and musically.
“Moving On” resonates with anyone who has ever had to let go of the past to embrace the present. It’s a song about the necessity of change, even when it feels inconvenient or uncomfortable. The lyrics celebrate the trio of forces—circumstance, perspective, and willpower—that come together to forge a new path forward. In this way, the song is akin to a spring-cleaning ritual, a clearing away of the dust and confusion of yesterday to make room for the clarity and potential of today.
For Stone Jets, the past is not a defining force but a starting point. “Moving On” encapsulates this philosophy, reminding us that while change is a constant, holding onto the pieces of the past can trap us in cycles of repetition. The track urges listeners to embrace the future with open arms, acknowledging that time waits for no one. It’s a powerful message delivered with the soulful, pop-infused sound that has become Stone Jets’ signature.
As they continue to tour across Europe and share their music with an ever-growing audience, Stone Jets prove that they are a band not to be missed. With “Moving On,” they offer a poignant and timely reminder that the only way forward is to keep moving, no matter how uncertain the path may seem.
