Grammy Award-winning guitarist Albert Lee, a celebrated figure in folk rock with a career spanning 60 years, headlines a concert at the hmv Empire in Coventry. Known for his work with artists such as Eric Clapton and Emmylou Harris, he performs in his 80th year.
One of the most respected and renowned guitarists in music history, the Grammy Award-winning Albert Lee has worked with the likes of Eric Clapton, The Everly Brothers, The Crickets and Emmylou Harris over an illustrious career spanning 60 years. His unique picking style - performed at breakneck speeds that have to be seen to be believed - has earned him the title of “the guitarist’s guitarist”. With his unique blend of rock ’n’ roll and country ballads - featuring his blistering signature hit “Country Boy” - this is your chance to see a true legendary guitarist in action in his 80th year.
"He’s the ultimate virtuoso. His skill is extraordinary, his ear is extraordinary and he’s gifted on just about every level.” - Eric Clapton
“A musical genius.” - Ralph McTell
“A brilliant guitar player. His sound is unmistakable - often emulated, never equalled.” - Emmylou Harris
“Great musicians make you want to dance, make you cry and make you fall in love, and Albert does that with his playing.” - Jools Holland
