Emerging Teen Artist Summer Bennett Drops Debut EP "One Thousand Fahrenheit"
feat. Energetic Focus Track “Just A Phase”
At just 16 years of age, Summer Bennett from Paradise, NL, is emerging as one of Newfoundland’s most formidable talents. Summer won the 2021 Newfound Talent Contest from MusicNL and is a three time Arts and Letters Award winner. She is also a multi MusicNL and ECMA nominated artist.
Signed with Scilly Cove Records, Summer worked remotely with multi-Grammy Award winning producer Greg Wells between Newfoundland and Los Angeles on her debut One Thousand Fahrenheit EP. “Working with Greg has been a dream,” says Summer. “He has worked with the biggest stars in the world and I feel very lucky to have him produce my songs. It’s like he can read my mind!”
The EP’s focus track, “Just A Phase,” is about the toxicity and negative aspects that social media influence and the internet can bring. Deep lyrics cover a unique teenage perspective backed by a modern pop sound.
The EP has taught me to become more creative, open and after seeing how Greg can bring my creations to life has given me the confidence to push my songwriting to a new level. I believe I have evolved into a more sophisticated songwriter. I was 14 when I released music prior to Scilly Cove Records and have grown as an artist with such a great backing system and a world renowned producer to push me. – Summer Bennett
