View With A Room sees Lage fulfilling a long-standing goal to “have lush orchestration combined with an organic sense of improvisation and the agility of a small ensemble” by adjoining his core trio of Roeder and King with legendary guitarist Bill Frisell. Having previously collaborated in several different contexts, including duo concerts and projects devised by John Zorn, the two musicians homed in on a shorthand musical vocabulary rich with references – spanning The Beach Boys, Keith Jarrett’s American and European Quartets, and George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass – to craft a subtle, eloquent weave that expertly manifests Lage’s enhanced vision in atmospheric and incisive ways throughout the new collection. “There’s no one I would trust more than Bill Frisell to come into our trio ecosystem and be able to expand it while totally embracing it,” Lage says. “It became a beautiful collaboration that achieved the Technicolor experience that I’ve been searching for.” Produced by Lage’s wife and musical partner, singer-songwriter Margaret Glaspy, at Brooklyn’s Bridge Studios with engineer Mark Goodell, View With A Room marks Lage’s second release via Blue Note Records, following last year’s acclaimed label debut album, Squint. Lage’s longtime friend and collaborator Armand Hirsch added integral post-production elements that bring the emotional intent of each song into focus. # # # JULIAN LAGE ON TOUR 2022-2023 SEPTEMBER 1 – Rimouski, QC – Festi Jazz International de Rimouski 3 – Detroit, MI – Detroit Jazz Festival 13 – Pittsburgh, PA – The Oaks Theater * 14 – Bellefontaine, OH – Holland Theatre * 16 – Madison, WI – High Noon Saloon * 17 – Minneapolis, MN – Dakota (Early Show) 17 – Minneapolis, MN – Dakota (Late Show) 20 – Seattle, WA – Neumos * 21 – Portland, OR – Aladdin Theater * 23 – Monterey, CA – Monterey Jazz Festival 24 – San Francisco, CA – SF JAZZ 25 – Geyserville, CA – Trione Vineyards and Winery (Early Show) 25 – Geyserville, CA – Trione Vineyards and Winery (Late Show) 27 – Visalia, CA – Cellar Door * 28 – Solana Beach, CA – Belly Up Tavern * 29 – Phoenix, AZ – Musical Instrument Museum * OCTOBER 1 – Boulder, CO – Boulder Theater * 14 – Los Angeles, CA – Walt Disney Concert Hall † 19 – Leuven, BE – 30CC/Schouwburg 21 – Oslo, NO – Victoria Nasjonal Jazzscene (Early Show) 21 – Oslo, NO – Victoria Nasjonal Jazzscene (Late Show) 22 – Reggio Emilia, IT – Teatro Ariosto 25 – Milan, IT – Blue Note 26 – Brussels, BE – BOZAR 27 – Nuremberg, DE – NUEJAZZ Festival 28 – Aachen, DE – Musikbunker Aachen 29 – Roeselare, BE – De Spil NOVEMBER 1 – Barcelona, ES – La Nau 2 – Madrid, ES – Teatro Pavón 30 – Washington, DC – Sixth & I * DECEMBER 1 – Philadelphia, PA – World Cafe Live (Downstairs) * 2 – New York, NY – Webster Hall † 3 – Boston, MA – Paradise Rock Club * 4 – Old Saybrook, CT – The Kate 6 – Newark, OH – Thirty One West * 7 – Chicago, IL – Thalia Hall * 8 – Lexington, KY – Origins Jazz Series @ Lexington Children’s Theatre * 9 – Asheville, NC – Grey Eagle * 10 – Atlanta, GA – Center Stage Theater * 11 – Nashville, TN – Brooklyn Bowl * 14 – Charlottesville, VA – The Jefferson Theater * JANUARY 2023 13-20 – Fort Lauderdale, FL – Blue Note At Sea * Pre-Show Master Class available † with The Bad Plus # # # |
