}}Jet O'Rourke is a Melbourne-based musician and architect from Adelaide, South Australia. He started performing in Adelaide and released a solo EP, Are Ya Gettin' On? which reached #93 on the ARIA Singles Chart and featured the single 'Fight the Good Fight'.[1]

Solo

O'Rourke independently recorded the EP Are Ya Gettin' On? in 2002, at Mixmasters Studio.[2] In 2003, Warner Music Australia and Warner Chappell Publishing signed O'Rourke as a solo artist, and released the EP featuring the single 'Fight the Good Fight' in October 2003. The song gained heavy airplay on commercial radio stations, such as Triple M, and led to O'Rourke promoting the EP extensively Australia-wide, and supporting rock acts such as The Pictures, and The Church.

The Gear

O'Rourke relocated to Melbourne in 2004 where he formed The Gear with Damian Gibson and Brett Wolfenden (later replaced by Leigh Baines and James Harding). The Gear won a spot on the Coke Live 'N Local tour[3] and released an EP in 2005. The Gear EP was produced by 5- time Aria Award winner[4] Paul McKercher (You Am I, Little Birdy, Eskimo Joe, Augie March).

The Gear toured the United States and Canada during 2006 and 2007, most notably performing shows to audiences at Canadian Music Week (Toronto), and SXSW Austin, Texas. The band received added support and radio airplay on KROQ-FM from renowned L.A. DJ and pal Rodney Bingenheimer famed for discovering musical acts such as David Bowie, The Ramones, and Oasis.[5]

Architecture

In 2012 O'Rourke was awarded The Desmond Tan Scholarship in Architectural History[6] for his research thesis analysing the impact of the Small Homes Service.[7]

Following his completion of a Master of Architecture at the University of South Australia in 2013, O'Rourke was the awarded the Hodgkison Graduate Prize[8] for excellence in the final studio of the Masters program, and the Architecture Practice Board of S.A.’s 2013 Travelling Prize in Architecture.[9]

In October 2016, O'Rourke became a registered architect in the state of Victoria.[10]

Shiva and the Hazards

In 2017 O'Rourke joined Melbourne rock group Shiva and the Hazards as a contributing songwriter and lead guitarist.[11]
