Brandon Smith (guitar) and Kevin Lee Burns (vocals) were the founding duo of Jeta, in Ontario, California, in 2000. Delineating their creative direction by blending electronic compounds with alternative pop/rock marks, the two-person team expanded into a six-piece lineup with the additions of Jeremy Kinnick (vocals, keyboards), Oscar Gutierrez (drums), Bryan Lareau (guitar), and Scott Usher (bass). Revealing strong influences coming from groups such as Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, and other major '80s bands, the California crew started gathering a considerable fan base, mostly due to their ingenious live performances. Following numerous live shows solidifying their major following not only in the U.S. but also in Canada, the band eventually delivered two discs, Jeta Jam and Jeta Internal, in 2001.

Get the JETA the bandmug. Big Band ( aka Ben Birdland ) is a character from a game called Skullgirls. It's a DLC character with a quite big complexity and a interresting story.
Origin:
Ben Birdland was just a cop in new meridian trying to serve justice and make the city safe. The sad truth was that all the cops were corrupted and were working for Medici Mafia, the mafia that controls the whole city and are also some jerks. Only him and his trustful friend, Irwin, were the good cops here. Once he met some medici goons and started fighting them, then the cops came but, instead of helping Ben they just fleed the medici goons and beat Ben, leaving him heavily wounded and near his death. The good thing was that his friend, Irwin found him and called a doc to help him. Ben wakes up in a lab where he meets Dr. Avian. Dr. Avian is a scientist working for Lab 8, the lab where Ben has been brough to, and told Ben that he managed to set him in an iron lung. And so he became BIG BAND
Appearance and Characteristics:
Big Band is 7'7" tall with a weight of 5000 lbs ( which only 95 lbs are organic )
His fighting style is composed of multiple jazz instruments like trumpets, tubas, clarinets, basically all classic instruments (that's basically the reason he's also called "One Man Band" )

Get the Band kidmug. An elastic strap worn over your swimsuit so that you can suntan without getting tan lines or flashing everyone around you.
I wear my bikini band at the beach every day because tan lines are ridiculously trashy and I have no intention of going on Jerry Springer...ever.
