As Jenny and Johnny is a newest band they don’t have any official music videos. They do of them when they were in previous bands and solo artists. But when looking at their photo’s to promote the band we can see in the mise en scene, elements to signify them as a band. Their image is very important to signify them as they have an iconic vintage 50’s rock and roll style. I feel that they show this in the setting of the photos by using an urban element as they use an outside/street and a vintage old car in quite a few shots. The photos are natural looking as there not shot in a studio. Their whole visual element is very American with their image and mise en scene. 
We also see they have a recurring theme of them using colours scheme of black, blue and red. And they have a logo of a blue snake in a circle with ‘Jenny and Johnny written in red. We see this logo on the back of their jackets in photo’s, and it’s on their website as well.
When looking back in their previous music video, Rilo Kiley (Jenny’s old band) and Johnathan Rice solo career, their music video’s show they mix’s performance with narrative. In the song ‘Silver Lining ‘ by Rilo Kiley the narrative is of Jenny on her wedding day, getting ready to get married to one of her band mates, then leaving him at the allure. They mix it with them playing as a band together with their quirky image standing out. I feel that when Jenny and Johnny do a music video they will mix the two together as because them as band members are in a relationship they would have a story about relationships in the song.
