Chart-topping British group Clean Bandit were the victims of a shocking robbery in Ibiza last weekend- with £35,000 worth of equipment and cash stolen.
The band had flown out to the Spanish party Isle to record the music video for their new single Cry Baby with DJ David Guetta.
However, the exciting work trip quickly turned into a disaster when they returned from dinner to discover that someone had ‘crowbarred the window and taken the lenses and laptops and cash’.
Opening up about the ordeal in an interview with The Sun, band member Grace Chatto explained that they were filming footage for the video with David in the studio, before crashing at a friend’s house for the night.
The other two members of the group, Jack and Luke Patterson, had flown back to London to edit the video – but when Grace headed back to their hotel to grab the lenses, she realised what happened.

But, despite being ‘scared’ to sleep at their hotel following the robbery, the musician was partially relieved.
She added: ‘The main thing was that the footage was safe, because that would have been irreplaceable.’
Meanwhile, the group hope to get the stolen £35,000 back on insurance.
They are planning to make a comeback to the music scene and drop their first album in six years in 2025, after struggling to ‘get their momentum back’ following the Covid-19 pandemic.
During their career, the group have scored ten top ten singles, with their first being Rather Be featuring Jess Glynne.
The scary incident also comes after DJ David revealed that he and girlfriend Jessica Ledon, 32, welcomed their first child together – a son, back in March.
The French born record producer shared a joint Instagram post with the actress, announcing the happy news along with a heartwarming family photo.
They also revealed their newborn’s unusual name in the caption, writing: ‘Love is in the air ❤️ Welcome Cyan.’ The name means ‘light blue-green.’
