The brainchild of Simon Le Boggit, MENTAL HEALTH is a sporadic music project spanning more than a quarter of a century. Its incarnations have included a gigging band during the early / mid 1980's and (following a break-down and respite care) the early 1990's. Audiences tended to be left elated or bewildered or both (but never bored). Record companies wouldn't touch MENTAL HEALTH with a bargepole. An album was never recorded back then, because the band was skint.

2006 saw MENTAL HEALTH frontman Simon Le Boggit remix the David Byrne / Brian Eno track Help Me Somebody from their classic album My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. Featuring George W. Bush rapping and singing, “BUSH OF GEORGE” topped both charts on the Bush Of Ghosts Remixed website. Comments from bloggers throughout the world included: "hilarious!", "fiendishly awe inspiring", "priceless" and "a clever, funny, angry and seriously infectious remix". Blimey!

More recently the MENTAL HEALTH beat band has resumed playing occasional gigs, which are increasingly incorporating video content.

2010 saw the release of Simon Le Boggit's first CGI animation - BOMBASTIC MIND. Made using (legitimately) free software and 3D models provided by generous creators around the world, the video has been showing at various international film festivals.

More videos are in the pipeline.
