Summary

BENNETT is like the friend who always understands exactly what you’re going through and knows what to say to make you feel better. When you’re ready to go out at 8pm and when you return home alone at 3AM, she’s there for you. Tears, toxic relationships, heartbreak, addiction, anxiety, and anxiousness absorb into her music and bleed back out as R&B-backed bops with bite. 2021 saw her securing a billing on the line up of The Lyrical Lemonade Summer Smash Festival and garnering praise from OnesToWatch and Elevator, to name a few. On her Things I Never Said and The Buzzed Mixes EPs; the singer/songwriter deals with her own demons, beats them back, and comes out of it even stronger.
