Yoni Mayraz (UK)

Award-winning grooves, strong melodies and infectious energy await you when London-based Yoni Mayraz visits KLEIN on November 27th. The keyboardist and producer presents his modern take on jazz, where hip-hop, electronic soundscapes and Middle Eastern influences merge in a vibrant concert format.

Mayraz moves freely between jazz, hip-hop and electronic universes, and with his latest album Dogs Bark Babies Cry he unfolds a personal and rhythmic universe. The album was recorded live over three days at the legendary Konk Studios in North London with bassist Tom Driessler, drummer Zoe Pascal and a number of special guests. The music combines tight grooves with improvisation, weaving together elements from 1970s jazz-funk, 1990s hip-hop and today's experimental jazz scene into something entirely unique.

Following his breakthrough with Dybbuk Tse!, Mayraz has performed at prestigious venues such as Montreux Jazz Festival, Ronnie Scott's, The Jazz Cafe and Brussels Jazz Festival. His live performances transform compositions into living conversations between the musicians — characterized by presence, dynamics and a strong rhythmic drive.
