Jeff Lang – Friday 26 May 7pm – “Australia’s best roots-music musician”
$30.00
Melbourne guitar wizard and superlative songsmith Jeff Lang spent much of 2021 bravely persevering with 39 date national tour to promote the publication of his first book “Some Memories Never Die”. His last visit to regional NSW was the near the beginning of that tour early in 2021, when shows were still possible before the advent of the pandemic.
Never one to stand still – even in the face of some of the longest lockdowns in the world -Jeff devised a new project at home with his partner Alison Ferrier. That project, High Ace, released their debut album in 2022 and Jeff also has a brand new album of instrumental 12 string guitar music to introduce to his fans.
Jeff is currently in the throes of recording another extraordinary major release slated for launch later in 2023.
These NSW shows will display Jeff’s fire for a return to the stage, where the alchemy happens in presence of friends, and he will be cherry picking gems from across his 30+ year career – every night a new set, a new adventure and a new opportunity to carry the songs into unexpected places.
Each time he steps up to take a solo, his hard‐won style is unmistakable – fluid but with an edge‐of‐the‐seat recklessness. Acoustic fingerpicking, slide guitar, electric lead, banjos and mandolins drop into place like puzzle pieces
- “Australia’s best roots-music musician” Rolling Stone
- “Jeff Lang is, in my humble opinion, a national treasure, a truly gifted songwriter and an
outstanding guitarist. He has been inspiration to countless Australian and internationally
renowned roots artists and surely has a place in history as one of this generation’s finest.
He has really touched me and musically, I had a kind of revelation…” – John Butler, John Butler Trio - “Australian guitarist Jeff Lang weaves remarkably skilled blues guitar around his songs, effortlessly playing complicated parts but never at the expense of the songs themselves.”
