Julian Lage Trio

  • Lexington Children's Theater 418 West Short Street Lexington, KY, 40507 United States (map)

We are thrilled to present Julian Lage and his trio in a return to Lexington. In March 2020, we were joined by Mr. Lage for one of the most intimate and otherworldly experiences we've ever presented, and did so just days before the full onset of the CoVid19 pandemic in the U.S. This concert is the triumphant return of one of our musical heroes. 

About the Album: Guitarist Julian Lage expands his horizons on View With A Room, a collection of 10 compelling original compositions that marks his second release for Blue Note Records. Having established a home base with his brilliant and deeply attuned trio of bassist Jorge Roeder and drummer Dave King—most recently heard on the guitarist’s acclaimed 2021 Blue Note debut Squint—Lage casts his gaze outward to discover new orchestrational possibilities with the addition of six-string icon Bill Frisell, who adds his inimitable voice to this absolutely stunning album.

Hailed as one of the most prodigious guitarists of his generation and “highest category of improvising musicians" (New Yorker), Julian Lage has spent more than a decade searching through the myriad strains of American musical history via impeccable technique, free association and a spirit of infinite possibility. The California-born New York-based musician boasts a prolific resume on his own accord in addition to collaborating with Gary Burton and John Zorn, as well as duo projects with Nels Cline, Chris Eldridge and Fred Hersch, among others.
