All Ages Welcome! 2x Grammy Award-winning British guitarist Albert Lee has played with everyone from Jerry Lee Lewis to Eric Clapton, to The Everly Brothers to Emmylou Harris. He was a member of The Crickets in the post-Buddy Holly era, and forged an impressive solo career along the way. Celebrated by fans and musicians the world over for his fingerstyle and hybrid picking technique, Albert is a multiple recipient of Guitar Player Magazine’s “Best Country Guitarist.” Albert Lee is known for his speed of playing and his technical virtuosity but is also one of the most melodic players. He’s often referred to as “the guitar player’s guitar player.” His song “Country Boy” helped to redefine country guitar for a whole generation of players and was later to become a #1 hit for multi-instrumentalist Ricky Skaggs. In 2011, a summer jaunt with guitarist John Jorgenson prompted Albert to form his own U.S. band for the very first time, and to this day, he maintains a robust solo career and continues to tour with his great band, selling out venues from coast to coast. Albert is out on the road in 2025/2026 performing tracks from his latest album, "Lay It Down," recorded at the legendary Konk Studios in London. From Mark Knopfler's blistering “Setting Me Up” to Jimmy Webb's soaring piano ballad, “Too Young To Die,” to The Everly Brothers' storming hit “The Price Of Love,” Albert's latest album sees his triumphant return to the studio, recording live, as one of the greatest guitarists ever. Don't miss the man known as "Mr. Telecaster," one of the legendary guitarists of rock 'n roll, rockabilly, and country music. “The ultimate virtuoso. His skill is extraordinary, his ear is extraordinary and he’s gifted on just about every level.” - Eric Clapton "When Saint Peter asks me to chronicle my time down here on earth, I'll be able to say - with pride if that's allowed - that for a while I played rhythm guitar in a band with Albert Lee." - Emmylou Harris "To hear Albert Lee play guitar is a joy I've never experienced with any other musician." - Dave Edmunds Albert Lee – guitar JT Thomas – keys David Chamberlain – bass Charlie Faragher – drums for a taste: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSxHPIuApTv1A78bgv7uKb3R72S71sOpQ&si=M9j1ERsJNNa0Q4a3 SOhO Restaurant and Music Venue 1221 State St., Santa Barbara, CA 93101 (upstairs in Victoria Court) Parking behind venue - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/santa-barbara/grammy-winning-guitarist-albert-lee-lay-it-down-album-release-show-at-soho-santa-barbara/200029148332750 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, performances, sports, meetups, meet-and-greet, country-music-festivals - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 16 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Santa Barbara - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: SOhO Restaurant & Music Venue - **lat**: 34.42362 - **long**: -119.70549 - **full address**: SOhO Restaurant & Music Venue, 1221 State St, Ste 205,Santa Barbara, California, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Grammy-Winning Guitarist Albert Lee “Lay It Down” Album Release Show at SOhO Santa Barbara - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/dda6936c39c1cc02fb04cb5b94c91221a77e446773a92b94fe04feadb116931a-rimg-w1200-h628-dc313131-gmir?v=1764712258 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Grammy-Winning Guitarist Albert Lee “Lay It Down” Album Release Show at SOhO Santa Barbara being held? - **A:** Grammy-Winning Guitarist Albert Lee “Lay It Down” Album Release Show at SOhO Santa Barbara takes place on Wed, 03 Dec, 2025 at 07:00 pm to Wed, 03 Dec, 2025 at 09:30 pm at SOhO Restaurant & Music Venue, 1221 State St, Ste 205,Santa Barbara, California, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Grammy-Winning Guitarist Albert Lee “Lay It Down” Album Release Show at SOhO Santa Barbara ? - **A:** Grammy-Winning Guitarist Albert Lee “Lay It Down” Album Release Show at SOhO Santa Barbara is organized by Music Magique Promotions. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
