Australian rock act Jet will return Oct. 3 with its sophomore album, “Shine On.” The Atlantic set will be preceded by the single “Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is,” which will be released Sept. 18 internationally. The track will arrive Aug. 7 at U.S. radio outlets.
After holding writing sessions in Barbados, Brookfield, Mass., Los Angeles and Melbourne, the band decamped to L.A. to record with producer Dave Sardy, who was behind the boards for its 2003 breakthrough, “Get Born.”
That set has sold 1.6 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It spawned the single “Are You Gonna Be My Girl,” which reached No. 3 on Billboard’s Modern Rock chart.
Jet will preview new material during its only Australian shows of the year, which are set for Aug. 15 in Melbourne and Aug. 17 in Sydney. The band will also play the U.K.’s Reading and Leeds festivals at the end of the month.
A brief North American tour is scheduled to run from Sept. 18 through Oct. 6, with a longer due to get underway in late November.
