Music Supported Here: Jon Kennedy

By | Published on Wednesday 28 April 2010

CMU Daily is currently celebrating the previously reported Music Supported Here campaign, and profiling some of the artists who have backed the initiative.

At the heart of the MSH project is a gallery of ‘music’ logos that incorporate the copyright ‘C’ which have been drawn by each participating artist. We will be featuring a different music logo in the CMU Daily each day, and will invite the artist who created it to introduce themselves and explain why they are supporting the campaign. Along the way we’ll meet some brand new artists, some more established grass roots acts and some pop superstars.

Today’s logo was created by Manchester-based music man Jon Kennedy. Before they tell us why they’re supporting MSH, here’s their artist blurb: “Almost certainly one of the 3 most talented men in all of Stockport. Jon is a man on a musical mission. What the end result may be remains a bit of a mystery, not least to the man himself but rest assured it includes an enormous bag of breath-takingly beautiful tunes, copious rump-shakingly fine dancefloor corkers and a hatful of innovative ideas bordering on musical genius. He’s certainly a talented chap”.

And here’s why they are supporting MSH: “I think the campaign is great in this digital age. Someone needs to steer the kids back into buying vinyl and a tangible product that can be passed down the generations”.

Look out for another ‘music logo’ and MSH supporting band tomorrow.
