After the success of his 2022 EP Le Piano, Donny Benét returns with the next chapter in his instrumental series: Il Basso. Paying tribute to the bass this time—the foundation, the glue, and at times the undeniable boss of music—Il Basso showcases Donny’s passion for the bottom end.
To celebrate, Donny will be taking Il Basso on tour, performing it live alongside all your favourite Benét classics. Expect an evening overflowing with passion, heat, and virtuosity from Don and his band."
Hailed and panned by critics as “Prince on a serious budget cut” Donny Benét is best described as the favorite nephew to Uncles Giorgio Moroder, Alan Vega, and Michael McDonald. Residing in Sydney, Australia, Benét writes, performs, and records entirely by himself at the renowned Donnyland Studios. Vintage synthesizers and drum machines are used exclusively to present Benét’s views on life, love, and relationships through the power of song.
Benét’s 2011 breakthrough album, Don't Hold Back, confused and intrigued many, establishing him as a cult figure in the Australian music scene. Several albums later, the piece de resistance came in the form of the 2018 album The Don, which led to Donny embarking on numerous soldout tours of Europe, North America, and Australia. Mr Experience, Donny’s latest album, released amid the global pandemic, continued his rise as an international artist, receiving countless strong album reviews.
