BNNYHUNNA
As a Ghanaian young kid from who grew up in the South East part of Amsterdam, life came with challenges. He found his remedy with his mutuals and strength in everything that inspired him. In a neighborhood where authenticity is an important factor, Benjamin ‘Bnnyhunna’ Ankomah discovered the ultimate way to express himself; through music. In church, he learns to play different instruments like piano, guitar and drums.
His dedication and passion for music eventually resulted in him producing songs for artists like Gaidaa, Rimon, Hare Squead, Akwasi and Dolapo. Finally, he started touring worldwide as a band-member for artists like Rimon, Jose James, Arp Frique and Yung Nnelg.
After numerous amazing musical adventures his hands are itching to share his very own message, which kicked off sharing his unorthodox debut project ‘SINTHA’. With this project Bnnyhunna wants to bring new perspectives in the contemporary status quo to improve the ‘regular’ experience of listening to music. Bnny aims to stimulate all senses of his audience. He experiments by using expressions of various art forms such as photography, videography and poetry. His ultimate goal is to create an inclusive and inspiring community to share his values and world view.
With his successful EP release; a sold-out debut headline show in Paradiso-Noord, support from blogs like HighSnobiety, VICE and Complex, more than 700k streams in 5 months and a performance at ES/NS, Bnnyhunna is more than ready for his sophomore EP. Bnny his music lives in a wide soundscape, heavily influenced by genres like hip-hop, R&B, jazz, soul, afro and hip hop and legends like Fela Kuti, Kanye West, Masego, Youssef Dayes, Pharell and John Coltrane.
