At the forefront of Bristol’s contribution to the pulsing new UK jazz scene come Run Logan Run, an alchemical fusion of surging polyrhythms and screaming guttural saxophone. Since forming in 2016 the band have earned a reputation form explosive live performances, full of raw power and visceral energy. Guided by the searching and fearless tone of founding member Andrew Neil Hayes’s saxophone, the project continues to evolve a line-up that has featured many of the city’s most innovative musicians, including drummers Dan Johnson and Matt Brown, producer Riaan Vosloo, and vocalist Annie Gardiner. Churning, future-forwards and emotionally tuned in, their latest album Nature Will Take Care Of You reaches out towards propulsive rock and psychedelic soul, while keeping one foot in the radical jazz-not-jazz of Bristol’s ever fertile improv scene. At the core is the expansive sound of Andrew Neil Hayes’s tenor saxophone - sometimes subtle, sometimes a sledge hammer.
