Bayan originally founded in Italy, merged contrasting Garage-Rock and Bossa-Nova influences, to produce a gritty rock sound arranged in subtly intricate structures and rythyms.
In late 2005 Bayan had three songs included in three different compilations distributed in Italy courtesy of Audioglobe. This led to them being signed by an Italian independent label (www.videoradio.org) after which they recorded their first official LP. In autumn of last year, they went on national tour to promote the album. The group were compared to Deus, Radiohead, Alice in Chains and Jeff Buckley, in the write-ups following the tour.
After their success in Italy, the group founder (Niccolo' Giulianelli) and bass player (Iacopo Simonelli) moved to Glasgow, attracted by the thriving music scene, to further promote their album.
They have reformed Bayan, which has acquired a distinctly international flavour now comprising 2 Italians, 1 Scot, and a French guy.
