Marcus is twice winner of the British Blues Awards for Best Acoustic Performer and Best Songwriter as well as countless nominations in other categories
Described by The Times as ‘utterly spellbinding’ and by The Guardian as ‘the next British Blues guitar hero’, he has fronted the legendary Ten Years After for a decade and leads the Ronnie Scott’s Blues Explosion in their fifteenth year at the prestigious venue.
He has worked with Eric Clapton, Tom Jones, Van Morrison and even Fishermen’s Friends. He has opened shows for and toured with Chuck Berry, Robert Kray, Beth Hart and Little Feat.
Known for his deep rich incredible vocals and renowned for his ability to combine many different guitar styles into a unique sound, his solo shows are a joyous journey through the genre of rhythm and blues.
Marcus Bonfanti
The London-born Blues guitarist was born and raised in a tiny flat to an English mother and an Italian father. Despite picking up the guitar for the first time at the age of 16 and being a self-taught guitarist he has already packed in plenty having worked as a sideman for artists such as PP Arnold, Joe Lewis Walker, The Selecter, Jimmy Carl Black, Hamish Stewart, Paddy Milner, Earl Thomas, and Findlay Brown. Bonfanti is fast building a reputation as one of the most exciting acts on the UK live circuit with a fierce show either solo (his 3 piece band features Scott Wiber (Bass) and Alex Reeves (Drums)) or with band (he also plays in the highly acclaimed rock band Saint Jude).
