The Log Ladies

The Log Ladies have crafted their brand of cosmic skronk jazz in the rich musical soil of New Orleans. Their music sheds jazz conventions and avant-garde headiness, yet combines these genres in a rocking accessible sonic adventure. Haunting melodies mix with a romping rhythm section, shifting textures and even a healthy dose of humor, to deliver a distinctive alluring sound. Chris Alford (guitar), Dave Cappello (drums), and Jesse Morrow (bass) are three unique stylized improvising musicians whose sum is The Log Ladies.
