Julian Lage and Chris Eldridge // Live on Flathead Lake

[@robst247]

As Pablo Picasso once said: "There is only one sound lovelier than that of a guitar -- the sound of two guitars".

the quote is actually from chopin

Julian Lage is on a different level, on a different planet, in a different universe.

[@Ratstick58]

critter is pretty good, too man! They both have something to offer and I could listen to either of them all day. not a competition, but yes julian is amazing.

[@thephdj]

2:30, right?

[@corystansbury]

G Agreed. I see them both bringing different elements. I can't pick between the two and I bet they both have tremendous respect for one another.

[@12tayloaush]

And 6:15 !!!

Lage is sent from the future.

[@Vetsthrottletherapy]

Can you almost smell the wood from the martins and the water ?? It’s insane this lonely jamming sounds and beauty

[@figueroa661]

I'm so glad I live in a world where such beauty is possible

[@pujadusumilli1258]

Put this in my friends funeral slideshow. Perfect. RIP Alex McIlvaine.

[@tomdell1949]

Julian and Chris I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to this piece and end up mumbling “this is so incredibly beautiful.”You are both phenomenally talented and I will continue to follow you both

[@gobseulmuhri]

This has to be the best use of vintage Martins by far. So beautifully done!

[@rishianurag5704]

these are Collings I think

[@etparadox]

They also have a pair of collings that match these guitars, but these are their original Martins.

[@revnon3958]

A million miles from that lake . delightful.

[@mollymastertonrothschild6441]

I come to this lakeside show whenever I need some extra good vibes to feel at peace. So, in these times, pretty much weekly ... thank you Julian and Critter!

[@NicholasPalance]

Come back to this gem quite a bit

No dislikes so far. The world is at peace.

[@robhamrick7190]

I am flabbergasted and astounded at the musical genius of this duo....it truly makes me believe our next generation is goingin the right direction....

[@peterlloyd5285]

My gast was truly flabbered.

[@jonathanbolger6173]

I've never seen such fluidity in a guitar player like Julian.. it's incredible to listen to and watch..

[@MTDesolator]

I've listenin and playin guitar music, since i'm pretty young. But holy f***, there is some magic happening. Every note, every chord, every harmony is so damn tasteful and Chris and Julian harmonize so well together and listen so close and respectful to each other. Amazing 😱

[@sorenjelik]

This rise my spirit..so good music, so masterfully preformed!

[@dannychoriki1977]

Missed my shot to see Chris Eldridge with the Punch Brothers last may due to Covid. Hopefully the stars align once again and I get to fulfill my life long dream of seeing those guys. Hahahaha.

this duo is soooo inspiring!!!! I got to play "with/for" them in a masterclass in danville!! it was beyond amazing one of the coolest musical experiences i have ever had. I will forever be a fan!!

[@stevenbeechey]

My favourite video on the whole internet.

[@kprice5877]

These are two amazing musicians. What a gift!

[@SoundPerformer95]

An incredible duo! It's clear to see their communication on a musical level when they perform when it comes to rhythm and feel for the direction of a piece. Julian Lage has to be one of the most gifted players in the world right now. His consistency and ability to improvise is unrivalled. Their jovial expressions as a two-piece bring out the best in each other musically. Hope to see more of their performances in the future! :)

[@brownsfan7753]

These guys are like peanut butter and jelly, they just belong together! Wow!

[@simpeable]

One of the finest song I've heard lately, so full of pleasure and guitar wizardry, I can't ask more from music.

Truly Masterpiece. I Really Love It!

For a minute I didn’t know if best rendition of “in Christ alone” or best rendition of the nation-wide song.. just kiddin’ , they world class players beyond my conceivably achievable level.

[@takingupserpents632]

Eldridge, you never cease to blow my mind with that tone, especially at five minute twenty second point. Downright delicious!

[@cristianrubcich9542]

Was shown this by my music professor. Absolutely marvelous. So strong that I was able to feel and vision a story in my head. It was so vivid. I was in tears of how beautiful both the story and the music was!!!!

[@Beingthankful]

DIVINE HARMONIC GOODNESS !!

[@davymactube]

Beautifully played gents!

[@celticgodsoriginal]

Outstanding. Lage plays everything soulfully and with elegance and Critter ain't no slouch either!

Nice locale....those Flatheads had a nice place there. Inspirational I would say.

[@mnelson56]

Those beautiful guitars, mic, and two gentleman very close to the edge of the narrow dock make me nervous! Besides that, the music they make is astounding.

[@ManwithAx]

I was thinking the same thing all the way through this video. One misstep and there goes one very nice guitar. Murphy is always lurking nearby.

Became a huge fan of Julian and Eldrige after watching their fretboard journal session. This video too had me wanting to abandon everything and get better at guitar. Looking forward to more! Perhaps another go at 'Old Grimes' in a similar setting?

[@blueseruser]

Magical!!!

[@fenderjag114]

Yes, watching these guys makes me want to play. Some virtuosos make you want to put your guitar away forever, but these guys make you want to pick it up, and try to capture some small element of the sound they get. In other words, they inspire.

[@PoeticLiving]

Very nicely done with great warm, vintage Martin tone,, What years were the Martins and what strings were each using here?

They could make a Walmart guitar sound good.

Bill, Julians Martin dates from 1939. The D18 dates from '37.

Any idea what Chris Eldridge is playing? It's a vintage martin of some sort but it's got a square top and a very long neck and head. Anybody know???
