With over 16 million plays recorded on LastFM, superb live shows and brilliant studio wizardry, Bonobo is sure to draw a crowd at this year’s Weekender. After focusing heavily on his DJing, playing banging dancefloor sets of hip hop, funk and drum & bass across America and Europe in the early 2000s, Bonobo opted for a lusher, more live sound with 2006’s Days To Come. To tie in with this musical development, he put together and rehearsed a live band that could bring the music of his records to life. Since then, he’s gone from strength to strength, not only with his solo project, but also in the producing department.
