Lou Lecaudey
Louis “Lou” Lecaudey (* 1990 in Bourg-en-Bresse ) is a French jazz and improvisation musician ( trombone ).
Lecaudey received his first trombone lessons at the age of seven at the conservatory in his birthplace. Due to his great enthusiasm for jazz and improvised music, he immediately began to deal with these genres without first having studied classical music. At the age of 17 he moved to Lyon, where he was tutored by the Canadian trumpeter Pierre Lafrenaye. At the age of 21 he moved to Basel, where he studied with Adrian Mears at the Hochschule für Musik and played in groups such as Mama Magnet, Magnezo and a trombone trio with Simon Girard and Raphael Rossé. Lecaudey worked for a year as a freelance trombonist and composer in Berlin, where he was part of Lars Seniuk's New German Art Orchestra ; he lives today in Freiburg im Breisgau . He leads his own project Double Moon and can also be heard on albums by Kenneth Dahl Knudsen , Jan-Andrea Bard , Tobias Meinhart and Johannes Maikranz .
