Downtown

This latest solo collection from Grammy-winning guitarist Laurence Juber, blends the intricate detail of his fingerstyle guitar arrangements with jazz-inspired improvisation. Recorded in one afternoon session at Hollywood s storied Capitol Studios, the repertoire is drawn from the Great American Songbook, with the bonus of a new Juber original. Downtown is a fusion of styles from both sides of the Atlantic, such as the English Folk- Baroque of John Renbourn and the solo jazz virtuosity of Joe Pass, filtered through Juber's unique guitaristic sensibility. Says LJ 'I've played hundreds of sessions as a studio musician at Capitol, and recorded a number of my albums in the historic recording location set below the landmark tower at Hollywood and Vine. This intensive 5 hour session was the most focused of them all, as zing went the strings through a batch of favorite standard songs, with the legendary Al Schmitt engineering.' Arranged and performed by Laurence Juber Recorded November 19th 2018 at Capitol Studio B, Hollywood, California by Al Schmitt, assisted by Steve Genewick Produced by Hope & Laurence Juber
