The Superjesus | 25 Years Of Jet Age

Alt-rock legends The Superjesus are set to bring their seminal sophomore album ‘Jet Age’ across the country for a special 25 year anniversary tour in June 2026, playing the record in full as well as a selection of their greatest hits.
The band have been busy over the last year, releasing their self titled fourth studio album in March 2025 to widespread acclaim - finding themselves at #10 on the ARIA Australian Chart more than 20 years after the release of their third LP ‘Rock Music’ (2002).
With the band in full-flight once again, they’ll be primed and ready to take their classic album ‘Jet Age’ on the road - hitting stages in Brisbane, Gold Coast, St Kilda, Castlemaine, Margaret River, Fremantle, Adelaide, Central Coast and Marrickville.
‘Jet Age’ came at a pivotal moment for the band in 2000; following the release of their breakthrough debut album ‘Sumo’ in 1998, the band were shot into spotlight - playing packed out crowds at the Big Day Out, touring relentlessly at home and overseas, and even picking up a few ARIAs along the way. All the strain and pressure put on the band eventually led to some internal turmoil, with founding guitarist Chris Tennent leaving the band and Tim Henwood taking his place.
"We felt so much pressure going in to make Jet Age because of the success of Sumo and the departure of our founding member, guitarist Chris Tennent. We needed to prove to ourselves that we could stand on our own two feet without him. As he was my writing partner I was terrified the magic pathway to creativity would be broken, but it was not broken at all, it was actually strengthened by fresh collaborations with new guitarist Tim Henwood." SARAH MCLEOD
"Back at the end of the ’90s, I was both excited and honoured to be asked to fill the guitar position in The Superjesus after Chris left the band.Playing guitar live in such an established and powerful rock outfit with Sarah, Paul, and Stu was a huge rush — but it was during the songwriting and preparation for Jet Age that I realised Sarah and I had a special connection as songwriters. Our very first co-writing session together became the album’s first single, “Gravity.” I’m incredibly proud of Jet Age and grateful for the opportunity to have been part of The Superjesus story." TIM HENWOOD
The band worked with producer Ed Buller on the record (Suede, The Psychedelic Furs), writing their material on the road while touring in Los Angeles and laying it down in the studio in Sydney at Festival Studios. The eventual album debuted a new refined, mature sound for the band, and featured some of the biggest hits in their catalogue; including ‘Gravity’, ‘Secret Agent Man’, ‘Enough To Know’ and ‘Second Sun’.
"Gravity, to me at least, stood for everything we felt at the time, the hardships, the cold floors, the hope, the disappointment , but most of all, the accomplishment and joy we all felt when we finished recording the JET AGE album." STUART RUDD
‘Jet Age’ went on to peak at #5 on the ARIA Albums chart in Australia, and was certified platinum in 2002 - with single ‘Gravity’ currently sitting on over 19 million streams alone.
Now, the band are taking the album on the road, celebrating its legacy with fans across the country. The tour will mark one of the first times playing through the full tracklist for recent band additions Cam Blockland (guitar) and Ben Todd (Drums) - both of whom are keen to dig in to the albums deeper cuts.
“Playing for this tour feels like plugging straight into history-these songs still hit hard, and bringing Jet Age back to life night after night is going to be an absolute blast. We have the chanceB to honour a record that shaped so much of what the band is, while feeling how alive these songs still are after 25 years. See you on the road!” BEN TODD
“I actually grew up with Jet Age without even realising I’d one day be playing it. I used to listen to it on drives with my dad in his ute when I was in high school, so these songs are wired into my brain in a properly nostalgic way. Obviously everyone knows Gravity — that song’s a classic — but what’s been really exciting for me is digging into the rest of the album and playing some of my other favourites like Over To You and Everything Turns. I feel like I’m discovering the album all over again, and I’m excited to be involved in bringing it to life in a new way 25 years later.”

Joining The Superjesus on all dates will be Sydney’s The Art, and New Zealand’s The After.
“We have played many tours with The Art as they are good friends of TSJ and recently did a tour of New Zealand with The After and loved them so decided to bring them to Australia to play with us on this tour . Both bands are a must see!” SARAH MCLEOD
