Juan Ibarra's jazz quintet blends hypnotic grooves, sonic landscapes, and experimentalism with a cinematic touch. Jazz fusion and avant-garde united with an unmistakable South American feel. Arco is inspired by an imaginary talk between Uruguayan musician Eduardo Mateo and Thom Yorke (Radiohead) in a bar from deep Uruguay, while drinking cane and playing chess. The talk has its focus on the search for what is our "bow" to be able to launch our "arrow". At the same time, they discuss calmly, while they think with their movements, the different transformations they go through in life, what are the natural and which ones are necessary. The album seeks a sound between the electric guitar of Martín Ibarra and the acoustic guitar of Jeremías Di Pólito, imitating the voice with the trumpet of Juan Olivera supported by the improvised bases of Andrés Pigatto on double bass and Juan Ibarra on drums, thus opening a limbo to discover between the world Uruguayan folk and jazz.
