About
'The Layers' is a stunning companion piece to guitarist Julian Lage's acclaimed 2022 album 'View With a Room'. The collection features six original pieces recorded during the same sessions which found Lage discovering new orchestrational possibilities by augmenting his deeply attuned trio of bassist Jorge Roeder and drummer Dave King with the addition of guitar icon Bill Frisell. Intimate and gorgeous, exploratory and embracing, imbued with vibrant colors and exquisite interplay, 'The Layers' is a welcome additional offering from this meeting of two of modern jazz's most distinctive voices with one of the music's most skilled and inventive rhythm sections. The album was produced by Margaret Glaspy and recorded by Mark Goodell with additional production by Armand Hirsch.
