Cilla Bonnie is a bassist, singer and songwriter whose soulful grooves and distinctive voice have built a devoted following over two decades of performing, touring, and recording.

Cilla works across roles: as a solo artist, she writes all her songs and arrangements, often performing in stripped-down formats (bass + vocal) or with a tight trio for full-band grooves. Her sound draws from R&B and soul influences while embracing structural rock dynamics — a blend that gives her music both intimacy and power.

In performance, Cilla is known for bringing warmth and authenticity — whether she’s performing solo in an intimate venue or laying down low-end grooves that get an entire room swaying. Her dedication to crafting honest, soulful music sets her apart.

‘There for Me’ is a full length album of Cilla’s to be released in the beginning of 2026. This music touches on elements and themes that Cilla knows all too well and hopes listeners will hear themselves in the lyrics, music and imagery. This album features bandmates Emmett Harrity on keys (Katie Matzell) and Chris Sweet on drums (Micromasse).
