Jenna Raine Shares New Song 'Just 15'
(Warner Records) Emerging artist Jenna Raine returns with her immensely relatable new single, "Just 15," out now via Warner Records. With an open heart and generous spirit, the sweeping Americana song is all about forgiving ourselves and each other for the choices we made when we were young and figuring it out.
"Just 15" opens with spare guitar and a quiet intimacy as Jenna sings, "Visiting on Christmas break, childhood house has got a way of making insecurities come out." We feel like we're there in her room with her as she flashes back on youthful regrets, but as the instrumentation opens up to include sprawling pedal steel, twinkling banjo, and a powerful rhythm section, she leads us out into the light: "If you slammed the door on the mother you ignored, it's okay to give yourself some grace / Take it from me, you weren't mean, you were just 15." It's a healing moment.
"Just 15 is about me going home to Texas and being reminded of all the mistakes and insecurities I had growing up. I think back on the times I hurt friends, argued with my parents, and tried too hard to fit in, and I still feel some of that guilt. But writing this song was my way of forgiving my younger self and remembering that I wasn't mean-I was just 15 and still figuring life out" says Jenna.
