SKINDRED RELEASE ‘BIG ’EM UP’ FOR WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY

Welsh ragga metal band Skindred release the video for their new single ‘Big Em Up’, taken from their recent Number 1 hit album You Got This, which opens with a simple but strong message of support for anyone suffering from mental health conditions, anxiety or depression. The message behind the song is a simple call for everyone to make sure your friends and the people around you are alright and to pick them up when they are feeling low. 

Skindred singer Benji Webbe says, “It’s so easy to get overwhelmed by life and everything it throws at you, from your gas bill to a family tragedy or people just being negative and your timeline filling up with hate and negativity on social media. ‘Big Em Up’ is a simple message for everyone to check on their friends and to pick ‘em up and to try and encourage some positivity back into the world. It’s a message me and my brothers in Skindred try and share in the music we play, so all we ask is for our fans and listeners to enjoy the single and to also share that message of positivity too. Please check on those around you. Big Em Up!!”
