SCREAMING Jets guitarists past and present, Grant Walmsley and Jimi Hocking, have spoken publicly for the first time about the loss of the band’s bassist and co-founder Paul Woseen.
Walmsley, who left the Jets in 2007, penned a lengthy and emotional tribute which traced his friendship with Woseen – who died of undisclosed causes late last week aged 56 – right to the beginning.
“My heart is broken. My sadness overflows,” Walmsley said at newcastlelive.com.au
“These wonderful memories, clear and vivid. You were my friend, we were brothers. You were an original! You believed in the vision and you gave and gave, as we all worked like no one before us.
“We recorded amazing music in the most famous studios around the world. Our little songs became anthems. I am so fortunate to have shared this journey with you. Side by side.
“All for one.
“We did it brother! May your songs always touch people’s hearts. May you fly and know how loved you were and forever will be.”
Hocking said the band was still dealing with grief and not sure of the next step.
“Thank you for all your support, it truly means a lot,” he said on Facebook.
“We are trying to figure out what to do next, but we have a lot of sadness to navigate.”
