First internationally recognized as lead guitarist in Beatle Paul McCartney’s band Wings (with whom he earned a Grammy award), Laurence Juber has since established himself as world-renowned guitar virtuoso, composer and arranger.
Juber, known to his fans as LJ, has released 25 solo albums. Fusing folk, jazz,and pop styles, two-time Grammy-winner Laurence Juber creates a multifaceted performance that belies the use of only one acoustic guitar. Voted #1 Guitarist by the readers of Fingerstyle Guitar Magazine, Juber offers superb arrangements of pop and classic songs.

A music graduate of London’s Goldsmith’s College, he was featured guitar soloist with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra before becoming established as a studio musician in the mid-1970’s. Since internationally recognized as lead guitarist in Beatle Paul McCartney’s Wings, Juber has since established himself as world-renowned guitar virtuoso and entertainer.

Juber’s solo albums certainly spotlight his unique touch and tone on acoustic guitar. The latest, LJ Can’t Stop Playing The Beatles! is the third in his series of arrangements by the Fab Four.  LJ Plays The Beatles, was voted one of Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s all-time Top Ten albums. Juber’s solo arrangement of The Pink Panther Theme earned him a second Grammy. His arrangement of Stand By Me was heard nationally in a Diamonds Are Forever commercial. His DVD-Audio project Guitar Noir (AIX Records) won a CES Demmy award for best sound. His ‘photo memoir’ Guitar With Wings was recently published by Dalton Watson Fine Books.

As a studio musician, he can be heard on recordings from artists as diverse as Dan Hicks & the Hot Licks, Seal and the French chanteuse Sylvie, plus he is featured on the soundtracks to hundreds of TV shows such as Home Improvement and movies including the academy award-winning Dirty Dancing, Good Will Hunting and Pocahontas.

Juber co-composed the soundtrack of the award-winning video game Diablo III and crafted the score to the NBC Dateline documentary Children Of The Harvest. His music is also featured in the Ken Burns’ documentary The Tenth Inning.
