Best "It" Girl

Jendayi Bonds

Jendayi Bonds was practically a tyke when she took Austin by (quiet) storm. Performing solo or with her band, Charlie Belle (formed with kid brother Gyasi on drums and currently featuring bass talent Zoe Czarnecki as well), Bonds has graced stages from Whip In to the ACL Fest with top-notch originals and sly covers, toured Texas, and released an EP, Get to Know – all while keeping her grades up. She's been on Smart Girls at the Party; she's a Youth Spin regular on KOOP 91.7FM; and she plays benefits and volunteers tirelessly for nonprofits including Girls Rock Austin. Bonds is beautiful, poised, stylish, smart, and talented, of course. She’s also giving and community-minded beyond her years. Yup, she rocks.
