Background notes
Archive material and source history
Stephen Bruner, who performs as Thundercat, grew up in Los Angeles with a father who was a jazz bassist. He started playing bass early, influenced by players like Jaco Pastorius. His first solo album, 'Golden Age of Apocalypse,' came out in 2011 and mixed funk and jazz in a way that caught people's attention.
He's worked with a range of artists, including Kendrick Lamar on the album 'To Pimp a Butterfly.' His own records, like 'Drunk' from 2017 and 'It Is What It Is' from 2020, often explore personal themes with a loose, cosmic funk sound. One of his tracks is called 'Cama de Motel.'
Thundercat has played with various musicians over time, such as drummer Dennis Hamm and saxophonist Kamasi Washington. He keeps making music that doesn't fit neatly into one category, drawing from the jazz and funk he heard growing up.
