Danny Rifkin

Daniel Rifkin is co-founder and reluctant leader of this band of primates. He sings and writes songs for the band, as well as playing guitar and woodwinds (oboe). Originating in Chicago, Danny played with a blues band named "Basemeat". He later played in Carbondale in southern Illinois with the bluegrass band "Prairie Dawgma". Danny grew out of the 60's and 70's folk and rock scenes, with inspiration from artists such as Dylan, Moby Grape and The Grateful Dead.

James Mark

Co-founder of Bonobos, James is a Denver native who has been playing with the band since the early days. He describes his bass guitar style as "flat and thumpy, with a touch of light and funky". As a talented writer of social conscience pop songs and poems, James made his songwriting debut in college with the boy trio A-III. He later played with the alternative band, The Fringe.

Don Erickson

Don handles keyboard for the band. He also plays guitar and dabbles with the fiddle. He is originally from Plainfield, Illinois, where he played with the country-rock band "Rounder". Don is the sure and steady master of anything he sets his mind to, which he so aptly illustrates in Bonobos.

Jason Keena

Jason, a master pizza maker in Idaho Springs, is the band's drummer and is the driving beat behind Bonobos. He also sings, plays banjo, bass and harp! Jason enjoys playing rock, funk, alternative, blues, and bluegrass, and he brings a uniquely creative style to his drumming.
