----------
"Juan Bayon is one of the hardest working and creative contrabassists in Buenos Aires, Argentina where a strong influential ‘modern’ jazz scene has been flourishing for years and presents incredibly fresh sounds and ideas. Juan is one of the leaders of this movement having played and/or recorded with locals like Paula Shocron, Adrián Iaies, Ernesto Jodos, Eloy Michelini, Guillermo Romero, Bernardo Baraj, Damián Bolotín, Francisco Rivero, Mariano Loiacono, Ricardo Cavalli and with internationals such as Tony Malaby, Ches Smith, Cecilia Todd, Andrew D'Angelo, Jakob Bro, Jeff Lederer, Matija Dedic, Tommy Smith, Danny Grissett, William Winant, Eva Klesse, Judy Niemack, Paolo Di Sabatino and Darmon Meader. He’s also a part of one of the most supportive local indie labels, KUAI Music, where he along with others part of this “collective” release an array of what the Buenos Aires avant-jazz scene has to offer.
ears&eyes Records feels incredibly lucky to help share Juan’s newest and third as-leader release, Vidas Simples, where he’s joined by a fine set of musicians including one of my favorite alto saxophonist in Buenos Aires, 26-year old Lucas Goicoechea, Chilean vibraphonist Diego Urbano who attended the Monk Institute alongside Josh Johnson and who is a member of Wayne Shorter-produced group Holophonor, Argentine-born NYC-based pianist Santiago Leibson who has recently recorded with Billy Drummond and Drew Gress, and hard-working drummer Sergio Verdinelli who’s performed with Argentine-famed rock bassist Spinetta, among 100s of other prominent names through Argentina. This is not only a record documenting the explosiveness that exists here in Buenos Aires at the moment, but also takes on a more international legacy.
I won’t deny as someone who now lives in Buenos Aires that I’m biased but I’ve been following Juan’s playing ever since he played with (another ears&eyes artist) Croatia's pianist Matija Dedic. Matija was in town playing at the International Jazz Fest in 2016 and needed a bassist that could fit in perfectly with his new bop and virtuosic chops with a looseness that would be needed to make the set feel nature, relaxed but with an intensity Matija often utilizes. Juan was just that and ever since I’ve been wanting to release something of his. He presented this recorded set of tunes, and I jumped at the chance." -Matthew Golombisky/Ears&Eyes Records
