Bonobo x Szjerdene Live In Session On KCRW

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Bonobo performs selections from his vast and beautiful blap-riddled masterpiece The North Borders live in session with Szjerdene on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic. Bonobo dropped by the KCRW studios with a full band to spread a bit of his ethereal gospel. With Szjerdene out front on lead vocals they ran through a handful of songs from his latest project, including joints featuring Erykah Badu, Grey Reverend and Cornelia on the original studio recordings. Szjerdene delivers impressively, as her stunning vocal fits seamlessly into Bonobo's productions. Parallel to the vocal performances are the straight instrumental tracks, which hit with equal force to round out an inexplicably dope performance. Check the footage below.
