Julian Lage Quartet

Long celebrated for his radiant tone, fearless improvisation, and genre-crossing imagination, Lage turns his focus to a new quartet of longtime collaborators—bassist Jorge Roeder, drummer Kenny Wollesen, and keyboardist John Medeski—captured on his latest album Scenes from Above. 

• A Prolific, Visionary Composer – His music feels spontaneous yet deeply considered, built to invite conversation, interplay, and discovery once the band comes together.
• Scenes from Above: A Band in Real Time – His new album shifts the focus from large-ensemble statement to the give-and-take of a small group, with four remarkable players giving and taking space in equal measure. His elastic grooves and subtle textures create the kind of collective listening that feels both intricate and effortless.
• Folkloric Influences, Fresh Sound Worlds – Lage creates songs that feel rooted yet forward-looking. He experiments with texture and timbre, switching between electric and acoustic guitar to create a sound that’s simultaneously grounded, exploratory, and deeply human. 

An evening with Julian Lage is a rare chance to hear one of today’s most inventive guitar voices up close, as he and his band turn adventurous compositions into living, breathing scenes—unfolding in the moment, right in front of you.
