Bonobo announces new album 'Migration'
The Ninja Tune icon has big plans for 2017
Bonobo has just announced a forthcoming album, titled 'Migration', along with a supporting global tour.
The melodic innovator, also known as Simon Green, will release the upcoming 12-track LP on Ninja Tune, an imprint that's been home to most of his music throughout his career.
Bonobo's new album, in standard form for the artist, takes an experimental approach and explores a curious essence of "transitory nature".
Following his highly-acclaimed 2013 'The North Borders', 'Migration' will be issued on both vinyl and digital mediums, boasting a full roster of original work and collaborators such as Rhye, Innoc Gnawa and the former Chet Faker, Nick Murphy.
In line with album support, Bonobo will be embarking on a four-month global tour. The 'Migration' shows will make stops in 21 cities across Europe and 18 in North America, kicking off February 2017.
See full details on the 'Migration' tour here.
'Migration' will release via Ninja Tune on January 13. See the video for its lead track, 'Kerala', below.
