The name Bonham is synonymous with Led Zeppelin.
John Bonham, or Bonzo, as he was affectionately known, was considered THE BEST drummer of all time before his tragic death in 1980.
Carrying the weight of his late father’s legacy, son Jason Bonham – a drummer in his own right since the age of 5, has carved his own name out amongst his musical peers and fans as the real deal and worthy successor to his dad’s crown.
Having played in countless bands over the years including AIR-RACE, Bonham and Motherland which have earnt him Grammy nominations and credibility, Jason was then asked to step into his late father’s shoes by invitation of Jimmy Page and played with the surviving members of Led Zeppelin in New York City in 1988.
Since then Jason has played with a number of other bands, including other Led Zeppelin reunions and has now formed his own project – The Jason Bonham Led Zeppelin Evening which is a tribute to his father’s music which is coming to Australia this April for a select run of shows.
After a sell-out Australian tour in 2018, The Jason Bonham Led Zeppelin Evening returns for 2023. It’s a band of accomplished and virtuoso musicians hand-picked by Bonham to justifiably bring the Led Zep canon to blistering life.
“It’s the greatest to represent my family and play these songs live!”
