The American musician, songwriter and producer Thundercat has been riding the cutting edge of futuristic soul, jazz, funk and punk throughout his career. Through his distinctive bass style that is both virtuoso and playful, the Los Angeles-born artist's music exudes the freedom and momentum of jazz, but with stylistic elements firmly rooted in contemporary (pop) culture. After the Grammy-winning It Is What It Is (2020), he recently returned with Distracted in 2026. The album has him examining themes such as technology, distraction, and introspection in his own fascinating way, and features impressive contributions from artists such as Tame Impala, Willow, A$AP Rocky, and a posthumous contribution from his good friend Mac Miller. Thundercat's work captures the zeitgeist without judgement, and finds beauty in the elusive. On stage, this translates into a free, playful, energetic show that is definitely worth your serious attention.
