From left to right: a tall man with a mustache and glasses wearing a patterned shirt and dark blazer; a man with dark hair and a beard in a light gray t-shirt; a curly-haired man seated in front holding an acoustic guitar; and a bald man in a sage green shirt and dark cardigan.

Julian Lage Quartet unites guitarist Julian Lage, keyboardist John Medeski, bassist Jorge Roeder, and drummer Kenny Wollesen in a performance shaped by trust, spontaneity, and collaboration. Performing music from their latest album, Scenes from Above, they blend jazz, folk, blues, and improvisation into music rich in warmth, nuance, and texture.

What unfolds is a musical conversation, with each player listening and responding to the others. Together, they create a sound that is expressive, spacious, and rooted in the simple power of melody.
