Albert Lee at Hugh's Room Live

We never tire of listening to and watching this master musician, Albert Lee, as he shares his extraordinary guitar playing, his songs, and his stories of decades on the road.

This year, 2025, marks 66 years the virtuosic Albert  Lee has been sharing his unparalleled precision and musicality to audiences around the world.  His upcoming touring schedule includes many parts of The United States and the United Kingdom, in addition to Canada and more as he celebrates the release of his new album, “Lay It Down”.  The album, recorded at the legendary Konk Studios in London is a tribute to some of Albert’s favourite artists and biggest inspirations.

His longtime friend (and touring partner), Emmylou Harris says of Albert:  “A brilliant guitar player. His sound is unmistakable - often emulated, never equalled.”

What is truly so special is Albert’s obvious joy to be well and able to play for so many of us in concerts.
