A Billion Heartbeats

Mystery Jets

A maximalist, socially-conscious rock record where shimmering 80s synths meet heavy guitar riffs. Urgent, empathetic, and built for the stadium.

Find on Amazon

It's like if 80s stadium rock grew a social conscience and moved to a London squat.

An urgent and empathetic surge of stadium-scale rock that balances political anger with profound human hope.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the explosive glam-rock riff of Screwdriver that sets a confrontational tone for the entire record
the soaring, communal chorus of the title track that feels like a collective intake of breath
the delicate, piano-led vulnerability of Hospital Radio before it swells into a massive orchestral finale
