SOUNDING POINT Released to Great Reviews!
"In all these different formats, Lage's well-developed personality shines through. Here's a jazz newcomer more interested in elegance than in flash, more interested in instrumental storytelling than in virtuosity. " Washington Post
"With so many emerging artists releasing albums before they're ready, debuts like Sounding Point come along all too rarely.

Punch Brother In NYC January 21, 2008 Hello All, Happy New Year! It's been a little while since my last posting and I wanted to say hello and let you know about an exciting show coming up. Tomorrow, January 22, 2008, my favorite band Punch Brothers is performing in NYC at the Living Room. Punch Brothers consists of Chris Thile, Chris Eldridge, Gabe Witcher, Noam Pickelny, and Paul Kowert. Seeing them perform is an incredibly inspiring experience and they are the coolest guys too.

Headed To London November 17, 2008 Hello All, I wanted to check in and write something on my new and improved website. I am on my way to London tomorrow to play with Taylor Eigsti. We are performing at Royal Festival Hall as part of the London Jazz Festival, opening for the great Milton Nascimento. We are both really looking forward to being apart of this wonderful occasion and to play duo again. It will be our last duo show until we pick things back up in February in Philadelphia. In honor of our show at Royal Festival Hall, I wanted to post a video of Stravinsky conducting Firebird at Royal Festival Hall in 1965. This video is so inspiring to me, watching the way he conducts and embodies the music so deeply. What a master! Enjoy!!
