Nelson Bandela
Nelson Bandela is a multimedia artist who combines the cacophony of the DaDa art movement with elements of a choose your own adventure game in the land of Funk.
Over the course of his career, Nelson has diligently contributed as an artist, producer, vocalist, writer and director to a wide array of prolific endeavors from the likes of Bill T. Jones, Swarvy, Pink Siifu, Nappy Nina and Tony Allen. Recently he has contributed as a writer, director and composer on the critically acclaimed HBO series Random Acts of Flyness created by his brother Terence Nance and The Atlantic Podcast The Experiment created by WNYC and The Atlantic.
With more than 70 music projects released under his various monikers (Norvis Junior, Nelson Bandela, NancieOver9000, DJAYTECHNOMUSTARD, O’Della Basura, The9, etc.) and a growing portfolio of engaging artwork, it is clear that he is a progressive and daring voice to watch.
