Concert | Indie Sounds: Bonobo / Cibo Matto


Simon Green, AKA Bonobo, is an artist very much at the peak of his significant powers. His 2010 album Black Sands was the high watermark of his career to date; a masterful record, marrying Green’s inimitable melodic genius to cutting-edge electronics, bass and drums. Black Sands went on to sell over 160,000 copies worldwide, and since its release, Bonobo has toured the world with his live band, wowing audiences of thousands at a time with the hypnotic, extended live versions of the album’s tracks. If anyone ever doubts whether New York City has what it takes to continue being an electric hub of culture and art they need look no further than the band Cibo Matto. Spanning two generations of indie royalty, playing with the Beastie Boys in the 90s, John Zorn in the 2000s and now having Weezer open up for them in Los Angeles in 2014, this band not only stands the test of time, they are a cornerstone of this city's vitality and relevance.
