Singer/songwriter Jodie H Dunn has released an emotional anti-bullying song ‘I Belong In Hell’ with support from family and friends.
Jodie, who lives and works in Swindon, has been involved in music from a young age, teaching herself keyboard at the age of nine. During her early teens she was subjected to a lot of bullying, forcing her to change schools in the middle of her exams.
However the bullying then developed onto social media, giving Jodie no real escape. After studying at the Academy of Music and Sound, music became Jodie’s diary whereby she expressed her emotions via her lyrics. Her songs have progressively become more meaningful, leading to ‘I Belong In Hell’ based on the idea of someone controlling you at your lowest point.
Jodie said: “I couldn’t do this without my family. They persuaded me to not give up on music. After getting signed to a label who gave me major issues, I found myself disheartened from songwriting, but my mum especially was key in getting me back writing again.
“I Belong In Hell is my confidence builder, and because writing it was so cathartic and the recording was so laid back and different from my previous experience. I’m just so excited by music again, and I want to give everyone that confidence after being knocked down”.
‘I Belong In Hell’ has been produced by Andy Whitmore, who has worked with major names such as Elton John and is available via soundcloud.com/jodiehelendunn
