Description
Natalia Bonfini is a blues and funk singer/songwriter born and raised in Massachusetts. She first picked up the guitar at age 7, musically inspired by her father who was a drummer, and soon after started busking locally. Those early years of performing on the streets taught her how to quickly captivate any audience, no matter the stage.
She was a finalist on season 20 of American Idol, auditioning with The Allman Brothers’ "Whipping Post", and finishing in the top 50 of over 100,000 contestants. She has since performed alongside tremendous national acts such as Allen Stone, David Cook, Crystal Bowersox, and Joe Lewis Walker. An award winning songwriter, her single “Before” won the New England Songwriters Competition and received honorable mention in SongDoor’s International Competition.
Reinventing your favorite covers, Natalia mashes up genres from soul and pop to classic rock but always find a way back to her blues roots. Backed by her incredible band (Dave Ellis on drums, Ken Hutchings on guitar, and Pat McDonough on Bass) Natalia comes alive on stage and is a must-see, with a sound reminiscent of Janis Joplin and commanding lyrics such as those of Alanis Morissette.
