Why Jack.org

Of the many live shows ZENON performed last year the most remarkable was at a Jack.org summit, kicking off the event, they performed songs from their album, GENRE Z, that are about ZENON’s own experiences navigating mental health, being open about identity and being vulnerable. The truly inspiring moments included participating in a safe sharing session where ZENON was asked meaningful questions, they met incredible people and was fortunate to have 1:1 discussions with many. That evening left ZENON committed to support this cause and now is their first opportunity.
