Teenage country-pop sensations Jetset Getset will celebrate their new album "Saturday Night" (Playback Records), when they help open for rising star Daphne Willis at the Hard Rock Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday, December 19. Joining Willis will be the legendary John Oates, of the classic rock duo Hall & Oates. Also performing that evening will be singers/songwriters Blane Howard and Sarah Lou Richards.

The Hard Rock Cafe show comes on the heels of Jetset Getset's recent concert at Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill in Cincinnati, Ohio, which drew a standing room-only crowd of several hundred.

"We are thrilled to be playing at the Hard Rock Cafe," said Kelli Jette, founder and manager of Jetset Getset. "All of the singers who are scheduled to perform that evening are amazing. We are especially looking forward to seeing John Oates."

Known for their three-part harmonies, Jetset Getset has been compared by some critics to a younger version of the Dixie Chicks. The group is fronted by 15-year-old singers Tori Little, Avery Eliason and Sadie Loveland. They are backed on stage by bass player Paul Kelley, 17; lead guitarist Jason Owens, 16; rhythm guitarist Justen Jette, 15; and keyboard player Terry Ranck.

"These are incredibly talented teenagers, who want to set a positive example for other kids," Jette said. "Audiences who have never seen Jetset Getset fall in love with them, wherever they perform."

Jetset Getset, based in Dearborn County, Indiana, had previously performed at fairs and festivals in the South and the Midwest, beginning in 2011. In the spring of 2012, Gold record-winning producer Jack Gale discovered them performing on "The Shotgun Red Variety Show" on nationally syndicated RFD-TV.

Gale came out of retirement and reactivated his company, Playback Records, to produce "Saturday Night" with help from co-producer Jim Pierce and some of Nashville's leading session players, including guitarist Kerry Marx, drummer Eddie Bayers, acoustic guitarist Michael Spriggs, bass guitarist Duncan Mullins, pianist Michael Rojas, fiddler Rob Hajacos, and fiddler/mandolin player Wanda Vick.

Jetset Getset will perform at Hard Rock Cafe, 100 Broadway, Nashville, Tennessee 37201 on Wednesday, December 19. Also performing will be Blane Howard, Sarah Lou Richards and Daphne Willis featuring John Oates. Doors open at 6:00 p.m.; the show starts at 7:00 p.m. Cover charge: $5. All ages admitted.
