GRAMMY® winning master guitarist
Laurence Juber -- a member of Paul McCartney & Wings from 1978 until they
disbanded in 1981 -- is set to perform a special evening of acoustic music
at San Francisco Art Exchange (SFAE) the evening of Friday, May 12. Known
to his fans as "LJ," Juber's appearance kicks off the closing weekend of
"Each One Believing: The Tour," an exhibition of color and black & white
photographs shot by Bill Bernstein during Paul McCartney's historic
2002-2003 world tour.
Limited edition prints of all 46 images are signed by both McCartney and
Bernstein, and anyone purchasing one of these extraordinary photographs
between now and May 12 will receive an invitation to return to SFAE for
Juber's intimate private performance. "Each One Believing: The Tour," which
comes down May 14, marks the Northern California debut of these images, and
only the second time they've been exhibited in the United States. They
premiered at London's Sony Ericsson Proud Central gallery in 2004 to
coincide with the publication of Chronicle Books' "Each One Believing:
Onstage, Off Stage and Backstage." The book and exhibition grew out of an
ongoing collaboration between Paul McCartney and Bill Bernstein, who's been
allowed unprecedented photographic access to the superstar over the last
fifteen years.
L.A.-based Laurence Juber was a young musician living in London, England
when Paul McCartney hand picked him to become Wings' lead guitarist. Juber
spent three years recording and touring the world with the band, and during
that time he also won a Best Rock Instrumental GRAMMY® for the track
"Rockestra" from the Wings album "Back To The Egg." Post-Wings, Juber has
pursued an acclaimed solo career and is renowned internationally as a
guitar virtuoso. While best known for his phenomenal acoustic work -- he's
widely regarded as one of the top fingerstyle guitarists in the world -- he
is also a master of electric, classical and 12-string techniques.
Juber's most recent album, 2005's "One Wing," features his elegant
interpretations of many of Paul McCartney and Wings' most beloved songs,
including "My Love," "Jet," "Band On The Run," "Silly Love Songs" and
"Maybe I'm Amazed." His '00 album "LJ Plays The Beatles," featuring
fourteen stellar acoustic renditions of Fab Four classics, is a particular
favorite among Juber fans, Beatles lovers and aficionados of world class
guitar music. LJ's May 12 date at SFAE is certain to heavily pay tribute to
all eras of Paul McCartney's legendary career.
