By now you should all know how we feel about Tall Juan at AP, but for those who don’t, lets do a quick recap. I first met the lanky Argentinian when we filmed a video with his mentor Juan Wauters in Lower Allston about a year in a half ago around the time N.A.P. came out, you can watch that session HERE.
A few months later, Tall Juan returned to Boston to play with Free Pizza at their final show at Whitehaus, you can watch that entire show HERE, captured by local artist/filmmaker Zack Lanoue. This time, Tall Juan was the front man of his own project, and Juan Wauters was behind the drum kit, with Bufu Records head honcho Ben Katzman shredding the bass. The show was a banger, and later that night (after a few too many high life’s), I was in fan-boy mode chatting with Tall Juan, and we decided to film a session the following morning at Whitehaus. To this day, it was the earliest we’ve ever filmed an AP session, it was a scramble for sure, but we pulled it off with the help of legendary filmmaker Mathew Volz running the lights. Watch that session HERE.
Last summer, Tall Juan was due back in Boston to play with his new (and current) line up at Club Bohemia for a KLYAM/BUFU hosted show. This time around, we decided to take advantage of the nice weather and film a stripped down acoustic song on a canoe along the Charles River. Watch that video HERE.
And finally, a few months later, Tall Juan was set to embark on his first month-long U.S. tour, and I was fortunate enough to join him on the road for the second leg of the tour. It had always been a dream of mine to document a rock n’ roll tour, so needless to say, it was an experience I will never forget. Check out Tall Juan’s new music video for “I Don’t Know What To Do” comprised of footage from the tour:
