Albert Lee & Band

Albert Lee & Band brings the British singer and guitarist, associated with country rock, to Union Chapel in London. The concert is presented by AGMP Concerts.

Albert Lee is a British singer and guitarist associated with country rock, a style that blends rock with country music. Born in Leominster in 1943, Lee has been performing since 1959. In the rock 'n'roll scene of sixties London, Lee exchanged groups with Jimmy Page and Chris Farlowe before moving to the United States.

Once settled in America, Lee immersed themselves in country music and came to be counted among the quickest guitarists in the business. Lee has worked with The Everly Brothers, Eric Clapton, Emmylou Harris and The Crickets, and Ralph McTell and Jools Holland have both praised the playing. The debut album, No Introduction Necessary, was released on A&M Records in 1968, and a Grammy came in 2002 for the contribution to 'Foggy Mountain Breakdown'.

This concert is billed as Albert Lee & Band. It takes place at Union Chapel, a chapel on Compton Terrace in London that also hosts concerts, mainly in pop, rock and indie.
