Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers: 'We don't want to be the biggest band in the world. It's just fun playing with our besties'

[Prehistoric B]

I'm loving this story about Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers ! I mean, who wouldn't want to start a band after watching 'School of Rock' at a sleepover? But seriously, it's great to see them sticking to their values and not letting fame change them. I love how they mentioned not compromising on what they believe in - that takes a lot of courage! One thing that caught my eye was when Ryan said "When we were younger, we were in the mindset of everybody else knows best... Now we know what is best for us". Can someone please fact-check where he got that quote from? I want to see if it's from an interview or a statement.

omg u guys gotta wonder why they were able to gain so much popularity so fast?! like their music is def catchy but it's also kinda... manufactured? i mean think about it, they started at a sleepover in 2015 and became one of australia's most exciting acts by 2023? that's pretty sus if u ask me. what was the real catalyst for their success? was it just luck or is there more to it? also, why did they have to "find themselves" and become more "grounded" in order to stay true to themselves? sounds like a pretty calculated move to me

I love how genuine these lasses seem to be about their music! I mean, who doesn't want to have fun on stage and just enjoy playing music? Their parents supporting them at every gig is so cool too . It's awesome that they stuck to their values even after finding success - it's not always easy to stay true to what matters most when the spotlight shines bright .

I'm also loving their new album, Glory! That song "Salt" is giving me major feels . And I love how they mention Reptilia by The Strokes and Moonlight Lady by Julio Inglesias - nostalgic vibes all around ! It's great to see these talented teens from schoolmates to rockstars while staying grounded amidst it all .

idk how they did it lol its crazy how far theyve come from just a sleepover movie night in 2015 i mean theyre still super down to earth tho, like their parents went with them to gigs and all that its awesome that they stuck to who they were meant to be. but seriously can u imagine if someone had told them theyd win best breakthrough artist at the aria awards?

I'm telling you, back in my day we didn't need all these new-fangled awards to know if a band was good or not . Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers just had that fire from day one. I mean, who wouldn't want to be a rockstar at 16? It's great to see they never lost sight of what's important - having fun and staying true to themselves .

I love how their parents were always there for them, even if it meant bringing school supplies to the gigs . That's real dedication, you know? And it's awesome that they're not afraid to speak out on social issues like sexism in sports . The 'Girl Sports' song is so relatable!

Their new album Glory sounds incredible, and I'm loving all these catchy songs like Salt and Ahhhh! What I love most about them is that they're still the same humble, high school friends we fell in love with back in 2015. They're proof that you don't need to sell out to succeed .

I gotta say, I'm kinda meh about how popular this band is now . Don't get me wrong, their story's pretty cool - from a sleepover to becoming one of Australia's most exciting acts! But, like, I don't know if I can relate to the whole 'fun and not trying for stardom' vibe anymore . They've been booked for events without being 18, which is just weird... didn't they have parents or something? And what's up with how quickly their music went from "girl band" to "serious act"? It feels like they're playing the game now too.
