All of Clean Bandit's collaborations from Demi Lovato to Mabel

Clean Bandit are one of the most well-known bands in the UK. Since their first single 'A&E' in 2012, the Cambridge trio have shot to stardom and staked their claim as one of the most popular bands in the country, with songs such as 'Rockabye', 'Rather Be' and 'Solo'.

Their unique combination of classical and electronic music has seen them win many Number 1s since they formed the band in 2011 - but their most popular songs have been with other artists. Following their performance at Hits Radio Live, here are all of Clean Bandit's collaborations so far, from Demi Lovato to Mabel, including the band's current single 'Cry Baby', with Anne-Marie and David Guetta.

Who have Clean Bandit collaborated with?

Who are Clean Bandit?

Clean Bandit are a music group made up of members Grace Chatto and brothers Jack Patterson and Luke Patterson. After meeting at the University of Cambridge, the group came together with former members Ssegawa-Ssekintu Kiwanuka and Neil Amin-Smith to make music together.

How did Clean Bandit get famous?

After releasing singles 'A+E', 'Mozart's House' and 'Dust Clears', the trio came together with singer Jess Glynne to make 'Rather Be', which not only catapulted their own careers into the spotlight, but also hers. The song topped the charts all over the world, and the band can attribute their first real success to the song.

Clean Bandit's latest song

Clean Bandit's latest song is called 'Cry Baby', the song is a collaboration with Anne-Marie and David Guetta. David Guetta revealed that Anne-Marie introduced him to Clean Bandit, and the song was four years in the making.

This new release comes after Clean Bandit started to tease new music a few months ago. The band shared a photo of Grace Chatto wearing a striking 'fire' top, with the caption: 'New songs ready now. I can happily say the clean bandit drought is over 😋'.

'Don’t Leave Me Lonely'

Clean Bandit's most recent song is with American singer Elley Duhé. The music video for 'Don’t Leave Me Lonely' was uploaded to YouTube in late 2022, and features the singer and band members.

In the video's description they explain how it was created: 'Guys!!!! A further experiment in our 3D world: welcome to the clean bandit Lonely Performance video with Elley Duhé. Shouts to Rob Daglish on the edit, Matthew Blacklock on colour, Sam skirrow on 3D background, Jack Foster on VHS transfer (we made everything digitally and then jack transferred to vhs to get this grain central effect!!!). Shout out DoP Krystian Winszewski, Lighting by Noah Furrer and London Lighting, and massive shout out to the best studio with the blue screen'. (sic)

Clean Bandit's albums

The band released their debut album 'New Eyes' in June 2014, releasing a special edition which also featured their second collaboration with Jess Glynne, 'Real Love'. It reached Number 3 in the UK charts and has been certified Gold in the UK.

The follow-up album 'What Is Love?' was delayed due to technical issues, but was finally released in November 2018. Following the success of their previous collaborations, Clean Bandit teamed up with more huge stars for most of the songs on this album, including Louisa Johnson on 'Tears', Sean Paul and Anne-Marie on 'Rockabye', Zara Larsson for 'Symphony', Demi Lovato for 'Solo' as well as Julia Michaels, Marina, Ellie Goulding, Rita Ora, Craig David and Charli XCX.

Despite releasing several songs since their second album, the band have not officially announced a third album. In an interview at Hits Live in Liverpool in May 2022, Clean Bandit did reveal a little more information saying there would be: "More bangers, more music, more touring."

Grace went on to say: "Hopefully an album, not too far away," however, she wouldn't give us any more details!
