Foggy Notions presents Julian Lage live at The Helix on 4th November. Tickets on general sale Friday 6th June at 10:00.
Julian Lage is a world-class guitar virtuoso and composer, hailed as one of his generation’s greatest talents by critics and colleagues alike. Born in California and currently based in New York City, Lage began his musical career at a very young age, and has charted a colorful, ever changing, and ever innovative path since, one that has, so far, earned him five GRAMMY nominations, one Independent Music Award and countless invitations to collaborate with the best and brightest working in music today.
This fall, Lage will tour in celebration of the 10th anniversary of his beloved 2015 solo acoustic album World’s Fair, his first solo release, which he recorded using a 1939 Martin 000-18. Like much of Lage’s music, the record defies genre, as he finds unexpected connection points between classical music and the American folk tradition. In addition to touring, Lage will celebrate the album’s anniversary with a new vinyl release, as well as an accompanying songbook.
Lage’s most recent studio release is 2024’s critically acclaimed Speak to Me (Blue Note Records), which was nominated for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album at the 67th annual GRAMMY Awards. Over the course of his multi-decade career, Lage has collaborated with fellow musical heavyweights including Gary Burton, Yoko Ono, Jim Hall, John Zorn and more.
