I first heard Brett Dennen when listening to a Gray's Anatomy music compilation. Though I haven't really ever watched Gray's, their music people also did music for The O.C. and they're pretty phenomenal. But getting back to Brett - I kept listening to this song "There is So Much More" that just catches me and holds me. And then today I looked him up and found "Ain't No Reason" which is another amazing song with an equally awesome video:
And straight from YouTube, here's what Brett has to say about the song and video:
A brief description of the video from Brett himself:
"It is our routines and our comforts that allow us to ignore social issues. For some of us, it is our privilege to be ignorant. This video tells the story of social issues challenging our privileges and entering our routines making them impossible to ignore. Social injustice cannot be ignored when you are forced to deal with them. That is the idea behind this video.
What would happen if you were forced to deal with something that you may think has nothing to do with you? If suddenly the world's problems came into your
own home? You would have to realize that you are connected to everything and everyone one earth."
