Debuting in the mid-2010s, the duo expanded their Avicii-esque folk-house sound by incorporating horns, banjos, and fiddles, and drawing from soul, pop, and Latin music. BUNT.'s most well-known songs include "Unbreakable" (featuring Clarence Coffee, Jr.) and "Crocodile Tears" (with Jens Hult).

Hailing from Stuttgart, BUNT. was formed by Levi Wijk and Nico Crispin, high school friends who teamed up at the age of 16 to craft dance anthems inspired by Swedish House Mafia. Taking SHM's propulsive festival house approach and enriching it with folksy elements like banjos and harmonicas, they adopted a style strikingly similar to Avicii's on early tracks such as 2014's "Journey" and "Harmonica." BUNT.'s subsequent 2016 output "Old Guitar" and "Coming Home" sounded like Of Monsters and Men or Mumford & Sons spun with an EDM twist, while "Young Hearts" was infused with saxophone. By 2018, Celtic music tones found their way into "On My Way" and "Little Secrets."

With nearly a dozen tracks building a wide audience by the end of the decade, the pair signed with Geffen and made their label debut with 2019's "Oh My Other." Teaming with Seattle R&B band the Dip, they followed with the earthy "Sure Don't Miss You." Borrowing Buena Vista Social Club's Omara Portuondo's "Tiene Sabor," they added Latin flair to their repertoire with that summer's "Cuba (Tiene Sabor)." Moving to Interscope, BUNT. released several singles in 2020, including the Avicii tribute "Crocodile Tears" (featuring Jens Hult), "Unbreakable" (featuring Clarence Coffee, Jr.), and "Nights Like That" (with Georgia Ku). In 2021, BUNT. released "Out of Time" (with Diviners and Tom Bailey) and "Hurricane" (featuring Hon & SMBDY). Crispin announced his departure from BUNT. in May of that year, and Wijk continued using the name as a solo artist.

Journey
BUNT. Lyrics

Sand beneath my toes i feel at ease
Tide creeping in with that summer breeze

My shoulders feel light finally I can breath
While in the winter times
I will leave to follow that summertime breeze

Darling, you can't stay here come with me
How can you resist that summer breeze?

My shoulders feel light finally I can breath
While in the winter times
I will leave to follow that summertime breeze
To follow that summertime breeze
