Yellow Jet Club

Yellow Jet Club is the brainchild of Portland-based musician Ben Schwab, crafting atmospheric indie rock with a moody electronic edge. Since emerging in the 2010s, Schwab's project has delivered a steady stream of hazy, introspective tracks like "Silam" and "Bias," blending reverb-drenched guitars with vintage synths to create a sound that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Their recent releases – including the brooding "Human Shades" and the pulsing "Shake The World" – maintain a signature DIY ethos, often recorded in home studios with Schwab handling multiple instrumental roles.

While largely a solo endeavor, Yellow Jet Club occasionally collaborates with Pacific Northwest artists, weaving layered textures that evoke rainy cityscapes and late-night introspection. Tracks like "Run Under the Sun" and "High Maze" showcase Schwab's knack for wrapping philosophical musings about freedom and existence in deceptively catchy packages. The project remains a low-key gem in Portland's music scene, consistently releasing albums that feel like secret handshakes for fans of melancholic, melody-driven alternative rock.
