Levi Don’t Do It EP title remains close to his heart. He opened up about the meaning behind it saying, “The EP is a life lesson. It‘s a line I’ve heard so often in the last few years. We tried to visualize that in the artwork of how I felt at that time. me on the chair, caught up by the lack of confidence and disbelief in myself. ‘don’t do music cause it’s risky.’ ‘don’t do shows yet, it’s too early,’ ‘don’t try it again, at one point you have to stop.’ but I gladly did and everything worked out so far which I‘m so so so grateful for. I think you can see that happiness and smile on my face at these shows. I‘m just so grateful that I can do this now. From the song “Moment”, embracing the will to live in the moment now – to “Peace in Silence”, a reminder to spend more time with our family and loved ones.”

ABOUT BUNT.

BUNT. is a German artist who made a name for himself early on with his playful and lively electronic productions. After graduating from high school, BUNT. took an early step into the music world. In addition to his musical involvement, he underwent training at Porsche and was simultaneously engaged in small productions for advertising jobs. An opportunity for a shoot in the USA marked a turning point. BUNT. decided to leave his job for music and move to the USA to work intensively on his artistic development.

His major deal in 2019 seemed to be the big breakthrough. He contributed productions for renowned artists like Avicii and toured as support for Gryffin. However, the euphoria was abruptly halted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The year 2020 did not unfold as expected, and BUNT. was dropped by his label. Back in Germany and facing financial challenges, he moved to Hamburg, where, despite all adversities, he consistently continued working on his music. Amid personal challenges, BUNT. found employment in various jobs, including in the kitchen and as a substitute at Mojo in Hamburg. Additionally, he worked for Flink and as a waiter, juggling three jobs simultaneously to pay the rent. Despite setbacks, BUNT. held onto his passion for music and hit a turning point with the song “Clouds”.

Bunt posted a snippet of the song in Mid-December 2022 and by its release on January 12th, 2023 “Clouds” had over 50 million impressions on Tik Tok. “Clouds” debuted at #15 on the Billboard Hot Electronic Songs Charts and since release, has garnered over 100 million streams. Many have coined BUNT as one of the primary parties responsible for the genre ‘stutterhouse’ in 2023. After “Clouds” seismic release, BUNT has collaborated with Ellie Goulding, Sam Tomkins, Elley Duhe, and most recently Tiesto. 2023 was a transformative year for BUNT. The viral exposure and explosion of Clouds afforded Levi the ability to play to audiences around the world. From surprise pop-up shows at nontraditional locations like a car wash and a luchador arena in Mexico city to multiple späiti pop ups in Germany to a mash and pie shop in London, the iconic Prince Street Pizza in New York and a taco shop in Los Angeles. In addition to these surprise performances, BUNT also toured through the Americas and Europe in 2023 selling out a variety of shows in each.

2024’s year is off to a blazing start for the stutterhouse trailblazer. Amassing 200 million+ streams last year, BUNT was named one of Spotify’s 10 Dance artists to watch for ’24 alongside names like Mochakk, Uncle Waffles and Sammy Virji. BUNT is gearing up for his second run in the US, Can, EU and Mexico from February – May followed by a festival run through the summer. In addition, the ‘Levi Don’t Do It’ EP drops January 19th via Arista/ColumbiaUK/Epic Germany.

BUNT is Managed by Nick Groff and booked by WASSERMAN for the world.
