Just in time for the weekend I have posted the second half of my exclusive interview with Laurence Juber. In this section LJ goes into detail about the characteristics and uses of different guitars, and then discusses composing for film, his recording process, and his overall goals in his composing and recording career. LJ also [...]
It took a little longer to get ready than I planned, but I have just posted my exclusive interview with Laurence Juber. It is so long that I am posting it in two parts, with Part 2 coming on Friday.
In Part 1 LJ talks about arranging the songs for his new CD LJ Plays The [...]
Well Laurence Juber has done it again, or rather, YOU have done it again!
The response to my review of LJ Plays The Beatles Vol. 2 has been ENORMOUS! This blog has had more than 1 hit per minute since the minute I posted it. The response so far has broken the previous record, held by [...]
A new album from Laurence Juber is always cause for celebration in the guitar-loving community, and there has probably been no greater anticipation than for LJ Plays The Beatles Vol. 2.

Laurence Juber (coincidentally Sir Paul’s choice as [...]
I am tired today. Really tired but also incredibly happy. Last night Laurence Juber played one of those concerts that all of us in the audience will be raving about for years to come.
Have you ever looked forward to some event for a long time only to be vaguely disappointed when it arrived? Last night [...]
Today is a day that I have been looking forward to for months - since Laurence Juber let me know that he would be playing at Hugh’s Room in Toronto tonight, to be precise.
I have been asked why I have “pushed” this concert so much. There are several reasons. The biggest is that I rate [...]
Well it is now less than a week until Laurence Juber appears at Hugh’s Room in Toronto on May 26. No one who lives within driving distance will want to miss this show. You can reserve seats here: http://hughsroom.com/
