SOUNDSWAP: Laurence Juber: Grammy Winner & Wings' Guitarist: Solo Live Performance

The Port Washington Public Library is proud to welcome back Grammy Award winner Laurence Juber. Mr Juber is a solo performer, recording artist, composer and arranger, who's playing fuses folk, jazz, blues, pop and classical styles, creating a multi-faceted performance that belies the use of only one instrument.

A music graduate of London’s Goldsmith’s College, he was featured guitar soloist with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra before becoming established as a studio musician in the mid-1970’s. First internationally recognized as lead guitarist in Beatle Paul McCartney’s Wings, with whom he won a Grammy, Juber has since established himself as world-renowned guitar virtuoso and entertainer.

Known to his fans as LJ,  he has recorded more than two dozen albums spotlighting his unique touch and tone on acoustic guitar. His latest release, Select Blends, is a ‘virtual’ live album culled from his over 250 livestream performances during the COVID lockdown.

His LJ Plays The Beatles was voted one of Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s all-time Top Ten albums. His solo arrangement of “The Pink Panther Theme” earned him his second Grammy.
