Logan Richardson Quartet headline two sets in the Blue Room, American Jazz Museum's jazz club. Get To Know Logan Richardson Quartet Known for his adventurous, genre-bending jazz, Logan Richardson is an American-born, Paris-based alto saxophonist. He has been a professional musician since he was 16, and came to wider recognition after moving to New York and issuing his 2007 debut, the post-bop-influenced Cerebral Flow. He has performed with a variety of jazz musicians including Joe Chambers, Billy Hart, Butch Morris, Greg Osby, Stefon Harris, the World Saxophone Quartet, Arthur Blythe, and Jason Moran. He is also a member of the Next Collective. While he is well versed in the jazz tradition, he has proven to be an eclectic, forward-thinking artist whose albums like 2015's Shift (which featured guitarist Pat Metheny) and 2018's Blues People showcase his love of mixing jazz with searing rock fusion, hip-hop, electronic rhythms, and Americana.
