At the time in his career when a lot of musicians burn out, Mason Jennings instead has new energy and drive with his recent release Songs From When We Met. "I’m just happy to have found true love and to be healing from a dark time. I was struggling to find hope and it found me,” he says. “Music just burst out of me this year.
