| Can "Nerd Rock" make you feel smarter & COOLER? |

"Nerd Rock" that makes you feel cool!We first saw these Nashville geek rockers last year at the Madison branch of the Huntsville Public Library. They were in the middle of a very unusual rock band-meets-quiet-library tour. The two-fold reason for the silence-busting tour was a kids book just published about the inner-workings of a real band & the band's fascination with the fact that they got to be most kids' first live band experience! The 32-page hardback book, "Inside a Rock Band," is filled with full-color photos of the Jetpackers. It explains what it's like to be in an up-and-coming, dues-paying rock band (instead of the already-packaged, sexy version we're delivered by the media)The band's quirky fare is a mashup of Beatles, Ben Folds & Weezer and will likely become your favorite just as quickly as you're kid's. And we all know it pays to really like the music your child is spinning - - especially when play is pushed for the 20th time in a row! While the book is geared for 1st-4th graders, it's fun for all ages. Jetpack's music is geared for people who like good music. Enough said. Watch a video by Jetpack UK here.
