The 28-year-old was born and raised in London to an English mother and a 'dangerously Italian' father. 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, Jimmy Carl Black, Paddy Milner, Earl Thomas, and Findlay Brown.
Bonfanti and his 3 piece band featuring Scott Wiber (Bass) and Alex Reeves (Drums) have been playing shows up and down the country throughout 2010 to promote the release of “What Good Am I To You?” his follow up to the acclaimed 2008 debut “Hard Times”. With appearances at last years Glastonbury, Secret Garden, Hop Farm, Maryport, Downpatrick and Carlisle festivals, as well as playing the prestigious South By South West festival in March, Bonfanti is fast building a reputation as one of the most exciting acts on the UK live circuit with a fierce show either with band or solo earning him 2 nominations at last years British Blues Awards (Best Male Vocals & Best Album).
