IN LAYMAN TERMS, STRONG ROOTS

Cole and Logan Layman have grown up making music together. In 2015 they met Hamed Barbarji, and this would be the beginning of an amazing friendship and a passionate collaboration. Nick Davidson joined the band in 2017 to complete this solid outfit. The band members are multi-instrumentalists and write original music. The new album by In Layman Terms, “Strong Roots,” is scheduled for release on November 7.

Music Journalist Barry Kerzner says, “With its NOLA flavored funk and soulful, rocking blues, ‘Strong Roots’ is strong medicine for the soul indeed. Logan Layman’s vocals belie her tender years, and Cole Layman’s guitar lines add passion and intensity with every note. Hamed Barbarji’s trumpet lifts the music up. Nick Davidson on drums joins Logan on bass to form a groove engine that is tight and tenacious. ‘Strong Roots’ is definitely a contender for Album of the Year.”
