The second album, Last Chance Disco (Jazzwise album of the year), an electric set of self-penned compositions, was released in 2005 and their third album Skinny Grin was released on V2 Records in November 2006.Over the course of three albums, the Acoustic Ladyland sound has become increasingly hard to define. Is it punk jazz? Is it progressive rock (albeit with no guitar in sight)? Is it pure avant garde experimentalism? Wareham is reluctant to bracket the music into any genre, and it is easy to see why. The result is a group that can surprise and enlighten in equal measure and that will surely continue its rapid rise, most likely reaching cult status over the coming years. [All About Jazz]"At their best, Acoustic Ladyland sound like no other band on the planet" [The Guardian]"One of London's most consistently jaw-dropping live acts they're on blistering, beautiful form" [Evening Standard]"Fierce intelligence meets musical fire" [The Independent]http://www.myspace.com/acousticladylandmusic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
