MARCUS BONFANTI & SAM HARE @ ACADEMY 2 ISLINGTON LONDON
From the first note of Led Zeppelin’s “Black Dog” sixteen-year-old Marcus Bonfanti knew he wanted to be a guitar player. Bonfanti 29, has become the sum of all the great music he was exposed to growing up North London. His 2008 debut album, ‘Hard Times’, set the scene a subtly effective messages about a new British voice demanding to be heard. ‘What Good Am I To You’ is listed in Classic Rock Magazine’s top 50 albums for 2010 and the single "Give Me Your Cash" is listed in the top 40 songs. The critical acclaim that both albums received earned him 2 nominations in both last year and this year’s “British Blues Awards” for Best Male Vocals & Best Guitar.
Also a member of UK rock band Saint Jude and playing and recording with legendary singer PP Arnold, Bonfanti has managed to pack a lot into his early musical career. Opening for the likes of Chuck Berry, Robert Cray, Jack Bruce, John Mayal, The
Yardbirds, Walter Trout, Ian Siegal, Philip Sayce, Sonny Landreth, Paul Jones, and Beth Rowley. As well as collaborations with Joe Lewis Walker, Johnny Mars, The Selecter, Jimmy Carl Black, Hamish Stewart, Paddy Milner, Earl Thomas, Todd Sharpville and Findlay Brown. 2012 will see the release of Bonfanti’s much-anticipated third album as well as dates around the UK and Europe to promote it.
