Chef Dave/Chef Dave Band

Fans of pure, expressive "Jam" music with a southern slant might find their new favorite band in Nashville's Chef Dave. The band's mostly instrumental sophomore album, No Strings Attached, harnesses the soul of the south, from Stax to the Allmans, with a trippy, mesmerizing groove and some spectacular musicianship. Seth Davis leads the band with his high-arcing, soul-tickling slide guitar work, where the Delta runs smack dab into the early PsychRock of the Dead and their torch-bearers. Davis has surrounded himself with magnanimous company, including organist extraordinaire Johnny Neel (Allman Brothers Band, Lonnie Mack, Gov't Mule), who gives the songs thrilling trills and smoky atmospherics.

Davis' debut was called Happy Accident, an apt description of the band's genesis (the group's name was a club booker's misinterpretation over the phone of "Seth Davis Band" and that first album was the result of a remarkably productive demo session with the legendary Victor Wooten handling bass work). The band's new album finds Chef Dave with a clear sense of purpose -- to give fans of Southern Rock jams an equally virtuosic and progressive alternative to the genre's mostly still-active pioneers.
