Official Music Video for MIND Charity I am releasing this before the song is available on iTunes/spotify etc. (28th August) because I want the video to be an opportunity to raise awareness and support for the long term mental health effects of COVID19. If you watch, please donate to Mind if you can via my justgiving link below, we are all in this together. ❤ https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/jenna-bennett-day-by-day This was a project that took over 3 months, working virtually with my producer, other musicians and my lovely students. The video was the first I have made and it features clips from my local ‘essential walks’ and lockdown home adventures. It has been so much fun and hard work but totally worth it. Thank you for watching, for more info head to my facebook: www.facebook.com/jennabennett music xx

#jbmusicalmondays Episode 3 – Radioactive
It’s the third week of #jbmusicalmondays and today I am joined by my very dear friend Ricky (check out his band ‘Gallimore!!)
Ricky and I met in Brighton 8 years ago studying together at BIMM, we bonded over a mutual love of red wine, guitars and singing… (and a lack of lust to revise and study…)
Years on and we are still besties, both in music and as friends. Ricky and I love singing together and are ofter on the same bill at local gigs…. this is one of our favs to cover – Radioactive by Imagine Dragons.
I hope you enjoy, filmed in his lovely lounge by Hove station. xx
#jbmusicalmondays episode 2.
