In 2008 Bronze toured with Andy Fairweather Low, with whom he had played previously when backing Clapton. In 2011 he appeared on the latest album by Bryn Haworth One Way Ticket.

Bronze rejoined Clapton's band for the 2-night Baloise Session performances in 2013 and a series of concerts in the United States and Europe in 2014.
