NEW MUSIC COMPOSED BY : THUSHARA KURUVITAGE HERE IS JONU BENNETT TO SAY A FEW WORDS : Hello friends, Iam Jonathan Bennett lovingly called Jonu. Blessed to be the elder son of Shane & Shamila Bennett & brother of Nathan Bennett. Born & brought up in Mangalore. At present pursuing my BBA from Oman simultaneously doing my internship also . I Love music, singing, dancing, swimming & bike racing. Was an active member in Bejai Youth Group. I Enjoy being a DJ for parties, also involved in being a part of many event shows in Mangalore & at present in Oman too. All my credit for what I am today , I give to my Abba Father who has abundantly bestowed me with his Graces. Though I have loved music & singing, I never went on stage to perform a solo other than school group singing etc. I loved singing in the bathroom. I also had the craze of singing along the karaoke music, recording my song on my cell and sending it to my parents & family on WApp. The only thing they said was "Son u have a God gifted voice" just continue singing. Being the first Grandchild of my Nanu Papa i.e Mrs. Gretta Rebello & Mr. Clarence Rebello , I was blessed by them with their love, care & blessings. My parents Shane & Shamila are my strength & my talented family my support. I came to Oman in May to live with my Parents. This was a turning point in my life when my Parents & Family Literally encouraged me to participate in "Voice Of Kudla" Muscat, which was held on 24/5/13. It was a tough decision for me but was worth the effort. I had to practice a Kannada , Hindi & Tulu songs which I have never been well versed with the pronunciations, but my Mamma took the effort of translating the Kannada & Tulu lyrics(script) in English for my convenience which helped me sing. My gratitude also goes to Apoliyab (Apolinaris d'souza) a well known Musician & Singer who helped me open my mouth round & sing so the words would be clearer & the assurance I got from him & my fly...saying "Jonu u will make it" Yes for my surprise 24/5/13 "Voice of Kudla" opened the doors for my Singing Career. I won 2nd runners up singing a Tulu song for the finals...I had no words to express my happiness. Just Thank God. Then the flow began, I was given to sing a Konkani Solo for the MCCP inaugural function. Won 1st place in MCCP men's solo, held recently. The most amazing " God's Gift " to our community in Oman is" DESERT FLOWERS " in Oman introduced by Monica Valdar & Thushara Kuruvitage all the way from Dubai on the 3rd&4th of December 2013, which just brought out all the wonderful talents including me...I thank u both. Last but not the least , Nathalncho Dabazo held on 6/12/13 by MCCP Muscat, was a great platform for me to be singing with prominent personalities like Apoliyab, Monica , Thushara & many more singers. I felt blessed when I sang Casablanca, Angel Eyes, a Konkani duet & Baila. Thanking one & all for supporting me. Looking forward to sing more & bring a smile on every face. A very big THANK YOU to my ABBA FATHER "for he is still working on me".
