Clean Bandit

Clean Bandit is a British electronic-pop group formed in Cambridge, England, consisting of siblings Jack and Luke Patterson alongside cellist Grace Chatto. The group is distinguished by its fusion of classical instrumentation, particularly strings, with dance and pop production, a signature blend that has defined their string of chart-topping collaborations.

Their breakthrough came with «Rather Be», featuring Jess Glynne, which topped charts internationally and established the group's formula of pairing polished electronic production with powerful guest vocalists. They followed this with a series of major hits including «Symphony» with Zara Larsson, «Rockabye» featuring Sean Paul and Anne-Marie, and «Solo» with Demi Lovato, each showcasing the band's knack for emotionally resonant pop songwriting layered over danceable, orchestral-tinged beats.

Across their catalogue, Clean Bandit have built a reputation as prolific collaborators, working with a rotating cast of vocalists rather than a single frontperson, which has allowed them to move fluidly across pop, dance and R&B-inflected styles. Songs like «Tears» and «I Miss You» continued this pattern, reinforcing the group's identity as producers and composers who consistently pair classical sensibility with mainstream pop accessibility.
