Carlos Meneses Trío
The Carlos Meneses Trio emerged in 2020 after spending the previous few years dedicated to the selection of the musicians which finally made up his current trio, namely, Federico Lechner & Daniel González. Together they staged their first concert in October 2021, where they recorded their album ‘Live at CAAM’, which was released on the market in December 2021, in both physical & digital format.
In 2022 their performances have been on the rise, adding to their appearances at national & international showcases. They recently performed at the ‘Fundación Mapfre Guanarteme’ in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and will now make their appearance at the festival ‘Canarias Jazz & Más’, coinciding with the recording of their first studio LP, titled “Like One” due to be released this year.
Since the year 2006, contrabassist, bassist & pianist, Carlos Meneses has dedicated himself entirely to music. The innumerable collaborations, productions, recordings and some albums in which he has participated, are the result of over a decade dedicated as a professional musician on stage. Lechner, famous Argentenian pianist, has collaborated with a wide range of artists on the Spanish commercial music scene (Toreros Muertos, Miguel Ríos, Ariel Rot, Javier Krahe). In spite of his youth, he is well known on the national jazz circuit: Jorge Pardo, Antonio Serrano, Chano Domínguez, Perico Sambeat, Javier Colina, Pedro Ruy Blas, Bob Sands, Ximo Tebar, Víctor Merlo, Israel Sandoval, Paloma Berganza, Carlos Carli, and so on.. Dani González Batista, drummer born in Tenerife, moved to Barcelona to finish his higher musical studies at the ‘Escuela Superior de Músicos de Cataluña’. He was part of the Barcelona musical scene for a period of ten years.
