Sydney-based composer Donny Benét – hailed and panned by critics as “Prince on a serious budget cut” – returns with a new single and video, ‘Le Piano‘. An intoxicatingly groovy instrumental piece paying homage to, and influenced by, Benét‘s love of funk, city pop and disco. ‘Le Piano’ arrives alongside the announcement of the Le Piano EP – an instrumental project out April 1, via Dot Dash Recordings / Remote Control Records.
Composed and recorded entirely by himself at the renowned Donnyland Studios in 2021, Le Piano sees Benét masterfully utilise vintage synthesisers and drum machines to present his views on life, love and relationships through the power of song. Of the project, Donny shares: “I wanted to create a short EP of instrumentals reflective of the music that has helped me navigate touring life, and life at home for the past years. For me, I really enjoy the headspace that instrumental music can put you in. You can listen to it in any environment with any degree of commitment.”
Donny Benét has also announced new Australian shows in Sydney (Saturday 9th April) and Melbourne (Friday 29th April). Tickets on-sale now.
