Speak To Me: Vinyl 2LP

Guitar virtuoso Julian Lage is set to release his new Blue Note album, Speak To Me, on March 1. Produced by Joe Henry, this album offers a musical journey beyond words. It explores a wide range of American music, blending gospel hymns with rural blues, California singer - songwriter vibes with skronky jazz. The 13 - track album features Lage's original compositions. A 2 - track single, pairing the bluesy '76' with the acoustic ballad 'As It Were', is out now. The album also includes the previously released single 'Omission', a tune with a pastoral swing.
