Aspects of those seminal influences can be heard in his playing on the 18 recordings he has released as a leader or in his acclaimed sideman work for Miles Davis, Billy Cobham, the Brecker Brothers, Jaco Pastorius, Steps Ahead, David Sanborn, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Joe Henderson and the all-star Four Generations of Miles band. Richard Bona is a Grammy-winning musician, one of the most accomplished international bass players, composers and multi-instrumentalists.

His purpose, and the way he connects with his audience has turned him into a staple name in world, jazz and Afropop music.
