Editor's note

Jay Jay Pistolet's indie rock with vintage pop pull

A Los Angeles band that builds driving guitars and nostalgic melodies into a compact catalog.

For a quick sense of their sound, try "Vintage Red" and their cover of "Paper Planes." Both have that mix of energy and retro feel they're known for.

Their debut album "Vintage Red" in 2018 gave them a signature track that still anchors their setlists. Songs like "Bags of Gold" and "Emily's Book" show how they lean into classic rock and vintage pop without just copying the past. Even a dismissed plagiarism suit over "Electric Nights" didn't slow their momentum, they named their next album after it.

They started with EPs like "The Sound of Yesterday" in 2017 before dropping "Vintage Red" the next year. After the lawsuit around "Electric Nights" cleared, they put out that album in 2020, keeping the core trio of Jay Jay, Emily Jones on bass, and Ethan Williams on drums intact.
