What if Cinderella Left the Ball Drunk, Heartbroken, and Tangled in a Love Triangle?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - EntSun -- A Fairytale Gone Wrong

Infinite Sunset doesn't read like a single so much as a short film. Donnie is arrogant and untouchable, Becca is backstage bargaining for one more night, Grace wears her red dress like armor, and the so-called "good guy" is slipping away just when he's needed most. These aren't faceless characters. They're archetypes we all recognize: the friend who never puts down his drink, the girl who can't let go, the starlet chasing attention, the knight who turns out to be a fraud.

The track takes the familiar language of Cinderella and runs it through a dive bar filter. The clock still strikes twelve, but the slipper shatters on concrete. The knight still shows up, but only to let someone down.

"I grew up on Disney like everyone else," JETT says. "But by the time you're in your twenties, you realize nobody's pulling up with a horse and carriage. You've got rideshares, bad decisions, and people who break your heart. That's the fairytale for us."

Nostalgia with Teeth

Raised in Orlando, JETT cut his teeth in Florida's DIY rock spaces before moving to Nashville to find a bigger stage. His sound pulls from the golden era of 2000s pop-punk. Panic! at the Disco's drama, Fall Out Boy's punch, Avril's unapologetic edge, but it doesn't rest on nostalgia. He uses that DNA as a launchpad to build something sharper and more brutally honest.

"There's a whole generation that wants guitars back, but they don't want cosplay," he explains. "They want something that feels like their life, not their older sibling's prom night. I'm not trying to copy the bands I grew up on. I'm trying to pick up where they left off."

Why It Hits Now

JETT's timing couldn't be sharper. Gen Z has been flocking back to guitar-driven music, pushing pop-punk and alt-rock into new territory. But while many acts lean into nostalgia, JETT leans into narrative. Infinite Sunset is not content with bringing the old sound back; it insists on writing a new mythology.

The Final Word

"People want to believe in happy endings," JETT says. "But the endings that stick with you are the ones that hurt. That's what I write about. Not the bow on the story, but the part after the credits roll."
