LAURENCE JUBER

Laurence Juber is a two-time Grammy award-winning fingerstyle acoustic guitarist also known for his electric work as lead guitarist in Paul McCartney’s WINGS. Juber has released 16 critically-acclaimed solo albums which feature his celebrated arrangements of popular tunes and genre-crossing compositions.

In Fall 2010, he released the highly anticipated LJ Plays the Beatles Vol. 2. He was voted “Guitarist of the Year” by the readers of Fingerstyle Guitar Magazine. A dynamic, entertaining performer and an accomplished clinician, LJ brings his passion for the guitar to venues around the world, creating a multi-faceted performance that belies the use of only one instrument.

In late 2014, Laurence published “Guitar With Wings, A Photographic Memoir” about his time recording and touring with Wings. Published by Dalton Watson Fine Books.

Later in Spring 2015, Laurence released his “Fingerboard Road” CD on Solid Air Records. Laurence ties in concerts with local bookstore appearances/signings.

“At the heart of LJ’s sound and style breathes a near-flawless technique where a fiercely emotional underbelly, alternate tunings, and keen sense of melody and rhythm coalesce into something uniquely his own… you don’t have to be a solo-happy guitar worshipper to appreciate his talents.” INLAND EMPIRE WEEKLY
