Julian Lage feat. John Medeski, Jorge Roeder & Kenny Wollesen - Scenes From Above (2026)

Scenes from Above is the fifth Blue Note album by guitar virtuoso Julian Lage, the second made in collaboration with revered producer Joe Henry, and his first with a striking new quartet featuring keyboardist John Medeski, bassist Jorge Roeder, and drummer Kenny Wollesen. Where 2024’s GRAMMY-nominated Speak to Me was Lage’s grand statement as an improvising bandleader helming an ensemble through a diverse set of tunes, Scenes from Above is about being a band member himself, about Lage exploring the tunes he has written with a crew he has built with that entirely in mind. Its nine tracks frame a brilliantly open experience, with four astounding players giving and taking space in equal measure as they explore these songs in one space, in real time.

Julian Lage: Electric Guitar
John Medeski: Hammond B3, Piano
Jorge Roeder: Double Bass
Kenny Wollesen: Drums, Percussion
