The Profile

Acoustic Ladyland was an English experimental jazz-punk quartet led by saxophonist Pete Wareham, known for blending jazz, punk and rock elements; notable for the album Skinny Grin.

Formed in London, Acoustic Ladyland released Skinny Grin (2006) and were noted for a lineup without guitar (bass, drums, sax, keyboards) and a high-energy, genre-blending sound.

Tracks alternate between delicate passages and explosive, frantic moments. The record is described as eclectic, emotionally powerful and consistently engaging.
