JENI FROM THE BEACH: ARTIST CHATS

I had a chance to chat on the phone with MASON & JULEZ Coutinho who are 17 and 15 year-old brothers, singer-songwriters, producers and musicians originally from Melbourne, Australia. Their passion for music and performing started at a very young age and has gained particular traction since they began posting hit covers and a viral video captured them busking across 20 cities in Europe. On the cusp of their East Coast Tour, we got on the phone to chat about their music background, move to the Los Angeles, CA and, most importantly, their upcoming project: GOING ON 21. This is truly an informative artist chat for artists and fans of all ages. I know I learned a lot!
