Julian Lage - A Guitar Genius (full interview)

[@BrandOdyssey]

Julian is an example of the results of involved parenting. He has mentioned his father a few times and I have read that his dad took him everywhere for his guitar playing etc. involved loving parents who help nurture their kids talents whatever they may be cannot be replaced by anything. There is no greater positive force.

[@fiftyghoststrading8500]

There Is No Greater Love

[@albifreedom]

Yes, I see some friends of me being supported by parents a becomimg pretty successful. Me personally, always had to fight alone and make my way through....

Involved parenting is only now becoming popular and was pretty rare before

[@songotenson]

Yep

[@JFS1215]

Amen!

[@ChanceCooper125]

I just love Julian’s soothing, encouraging presence. He’s like a guitar therapist. This interview was incredible!

[@bensanford9503]

This video answers the burning question, what happens when the nicest guy in guitar KZbin interviews the kindest jazz guitar virtuoso? You just start watching and you end up watching for a solid hour because the vibe is so positive.

[@julieDL6334]

Ahhh it just came to my consciousness around 12 minutes in, the profound gentle curiosity and communication and wonder came into my mind. What would it be like to grow up in this type of atmosphere? Wow 🤩 I don’t know anything about playing guitar but I heard him play and am now completely in love with this music and vibe❤

[@Jacques-rr5zv]

The most important thing for me is originality. Julian Lage sounds like no one else and his knowledge of jazz is immense. One of the most important guitarists of the moment.

[@mskcrc]

This guy is like the Nabokov of guitar, to me. I do not understand where he came from, how he expresses his language so effortlessly. And at the same time, it's deeply human, not merely academic, not a thought-experiment but something emotional and raw. It makes total sense to me that he is also a lyrical bluegrass/acoustic player who's not just playing a bunch of dissonant shapes because he's bored of pleasant harmonization. The guy has a deep well in that heart of his, and we're all lucky that his brain and fingers are up for the challenge of translating it.

[@eosborne6495]

I think Julian has struck the perfect balance between sounding completely original while still engaging deeply with the tradition. Every great guitarist of the last 100 years has left their mark on his playing, but he doesn’t really sound like any of them.

[@hoisin75]

I swear Julian is a 90s Disney animator creation - I mean that in the best way. There's something hyper-real about him. That was a briliant 70 minutes.

[@whoisdin]

[@jakelewis456]

His guitar playing is superb, but I'm more impressed with how humble and kind he is in the way he communicates.

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

He's as nice as he comes across. Special dude

[@paulknobloch3440]

I've played and have been a huge fan of other players all my life. I saw Joe Pass play for four straight hours, and I was sitting close enough to reach out and touch him. There's virtually no serious guitarist in any genre I haven't listened to. But I have never seen or listened to a guitarist whose knowledge of theory, counterpoint, and musical history even comes close to Julian's. His technique is beyond flawless and he possesses a nuanced and complete mastery of dynamics. He never shows off and always plays musically, inventively, and to the tune, not for his ego. His originality, his sense of groove and ability to swing, and the fact that he can almost magically appear to never repeat the same line no matter how many times he plays a tune is staggering. He can whisper and he can roar. He seems to be able to instantly realize any musical idea he has, and he just does things no one else can do. He's also a master blues and bluegrass player, a noise rock musician, and a peerless free jazz improviser. He's as soulful, articulate, and erudite as a person as he is a player. I hated the fusion/Metheny-Scofield era. I respected Holdsworth but hated the music. I like metal but have zero patience for shredders (athletes, not musicians). This is the player I've wanted to hear and play like my entire life. Thanks for this!

[@fraidwoodcesco]

wow... I totally agree

[@bskbskbskbskbsk]

This comment got real.

[@paulknobloch3440]

@@fraidwoodcesco I just saw some other KZbinr call him overrated, some fusionhead with a guitar channel, head up his ass. I added a few choice words and copied this reply and posted it. I mean, I don't comment much. Almost never. And I know this ain't no life and death business. I write about politics, so believe me. But that was beyond stupid, almost spiteful.

[@paulknobloch3440]

@@Ashley-jp4nn If you think listening to a bunch of guitarists amounts to “bragging” then you have a pretty broad and vague definition of the term that I’m not hip to. Anyone, even a mediocre guitarist like me, can listen to everything on demand, if you haven’t noticed. And thanks for understanding what I wrote. I’d hate to have to say twice that I consider shredders to be (almost always) athletes, not musicians. It’s smart, though, how fusion players slide into one-chord vamps when it’s time to solo so they can rip through those patterns without any pesky musical concerns like chord changes. Why don’t you tell me why I’m wrong instead of attacking me personally with some lame ad hominem bullshit?

[@frankiegumdrops8532]

I’ve watched Julian play but never heard him in an interview before. What a delightful guy!

[@obsoletecd-rom]

I’ve seen Julian in concert 6 times and spoken to him on a few occasions. Each time felt like a transcendental musical experience. His humility and kindness is just as incredible as his playing. Not to mention the dynamics between him and Jorge. My favorite musician and band by far.

[@StrengthandSanity]

His kindness just jumps off the screen in all the interviews I've watched. I haven't talked to him, but I did see him live doing his duo with Nels Cline. That was super fun!

[@obsoletecd-rom]

@@StrengthandSanity I’m convinced that part of Julian’s musical prowess comes from that part of him.

[@evp854]

@@StrengthandSanity When he played with Nels Cline's group right before Squint came out was when I first saw him live. That was one of the coolest concerts I've ever been to. I'm getting to see Nels play again in August!

[@StrengthandSanity]

@@evp854 Very cool! Nels is also great fun to see. I was lucky to see the Nels Cline Singers many years ago... sat literally 10 feet away from the band. He had Trevor Dunn playing double bass on this particular gig. An added bonus as I also like Trevor's work (and had seen him with John Zorn, also saw him with Fantomas... sadly didn't go to the Mr Bungle tour with the original band in the 90's... I had a chance but didn't go).

[@passerbycmc]

nice am seeing him tomorrow night for the first time and i am ultra enthused about it

[@givepeaceachance940]

The way this man speaks about performance anxiety makes him a consummate music teacher, and his playing is amazing. Great interview!

[@martinsutcliffe2798]

Paul. I'm not exaggerating when I say this is one of the absolute best conversations on guitar I've ever come across, from the magazine days of the 80s to now. Incredibly interesting and inspiring. Give yourself a pat on the back

[@reverist.998]

In this conversation, I have gathered some very interesting and deep quotes that most of us must integrate to whatever endeavors we have towards music and guitar: 1. "This is music, and you gotta play what you think is cool" - Julian Lage 2. "Internet opinions". that's a terrifying place. I'd stay away from that the best I can." - Julian Lage 3." It's very human to be nervous" - Julian Lage

[@Subropontes]

Julian is one of the most inspiring, natural, fluid, connected and sincere guitar players I’ve ever heard. Truly amazing.

[@michaelrogers9029]

Great discussion Paul! My 7 year old son is a huge Julian fan. I play tons of music for my children, and he just latched on to Julian's stuff. He asked for one of those Loog 3 string Telecasters for Christmas "because that's what Julian plays!" He took his first lesson last week and told his instructor that 'Nocturne' is what he wants to work on first. 😳 He and I will definitely be watching this interview multiple times. There's so much gold in there. Thanks for everything you do!

[@bilbowaggins3036]

Paul: "Are you still nervous playing?" Julian: "I'm still nervous living....I don't want to leave my house." I felt that 😅

[@PabloSchred]

I love how Julian speaks - He thinks about what he's going to say but even if he's hyped or amped.. He still talks with a tone that is relaxed and calm and only the information he puts across is the important thing

[@nialldoyle6328]

The zen in this dialogue is beautiful to behold

[@antoniocaruso5169]

Man, I wish all of youtube content were like this interview. This is just beautiful, so well done. Not only is Julian an incredible, astounding musician, but he's just so human. Everything in his music speaks humanity, as well as his way to accept the possibility to get something wrong, which to me kind of gives him the freedom that he has while playing. I think this is why, in a world full of hyper-virtuoso jazz guitarists, you can always kind of recognize him as being one of the most authentic and sincere ones. I also had seen the interview with Rick Beato but it's incredible how he opened himself so much more here, to me it's super relatable. Thank you Julian and thank you Paul!

[@treverswearingen8596]

This is the best conversation around the guitar I've had the privilege to witness. The way Julian articulates creating art, (executing, practicing, learning, performing) is applicable to creative people no matter what medium you choose to explore.

[@shinyenergyball]

What I love about Julian is that you can see how far down the path he is as a musician (and spiritually) in the mindful way he moves his hands and articulates his investigations. The mere fact that he integrates sax playing, singing, and straight up life experience and emotions into his guitar style from a non-judgmental and highly aware standpoint is just a beautiful thing to be near.

This is one of the best conversations about music and the guitar I’ve seen online. Ever. Thanks to both of you for sharing.

[@VilleKuitunen6]

Julian's technical skills are self evident, but even more important is his amazing musicality. Usually people who say the "play with feel" are just blues dads too lazy to practice. Julian has the chops and plays with FEEL more than anyone else I've heard. I've been following him for a few years now, and he seems like such a humble soul, breathing and living through his music.

[@Therealmeowmeow22]

you're right on the feel point. his "feel" is what the word should be about, his phrasing and approach to his songs and improv are completely different each time. usually when people refer to feel its just about blues bends lol

[@67goldtops]

"Usually people who say the "play with feel" are just blues dads too lazy to practice." Elite level incompetence in that sweeping overgeneralization. Kudos to you.

[@matthewcasey892]

Every single time Julian shares in words his way of music, I learn so much about myself. Guitar has become more than an instrument.

[@jimmyheimish]

[@johnrodgers2424]

Thank you for this Paul and Julian. So many nuggets of wisdom in this conversation. I’m 61 and find that now I play guitar because it is a form of relaxation, deep enjoyment and hopefully will keep my neurons firing into old age. But the comment about remembering the first time I played something and it sounded just like the song did on the album really brought me back to when I first stayed playing as a teenager. The first time I plugged into and overdrive and flanger pedal, and it sounded (to my young ears) like Eddie Van Halen is a memory that still brings back to same emotional response. I think that we sometimes try to chase an goal that we think we must achieve in order to be a “real” guitarist, when really it’s the small things that being those old emotions back that are important. My 2 cents anyway…Love Julian’s music. I was fortunate enough to see him in a small club in Victoria, BC several years ago, and it still resonates as one of the best live performances I’ve seen.

Every video I see of Julian Lage I like him more. He is so well spoken and engaging, very refreshing and a fantastic player too.

[@shrubberry]

i think what strikes me most about julian's playing, what puts him in an entirely different stratosphere as a musician, is how utterly present he is when he plays. it feels like there's no semblance of premeditation in his playing. you don't get a sense that he's thinking about what to do next. i think as guitarists, we all have our favorite licks that we default to and play on autopilot sometimes, but with julian, he's so totally immersed in the moment, so attuned to himself, that he lets the next note reveal itself and unfold almost? it's fascinating to watch and makes you want to ask "how the heck did you even think of playing what you just did?" but i think that question might be off-base because the point is that he's NOT thinking about it. he's just listening to himself and following that road, but he does it so quickly, it appears seamless. anyhow, super cool to hear him play and talk about his playing.

[@cezarsantana]

2:21 regarding touch, I suspect nearly every guitar player does think about it, yes, but his execution really is out of this world, whether it's at the end of a _RIDICULOUS_ run, or even through a seemingly-simple progression of notes.
