DIGIPACK EDITION
"Modern Lore" finds Lage playfully flipping the script he followed on his acclaimed 2016 Mack Avenue debut, "Arclight". That album was his first trio set on electric guitar and found Lage inspired by the sounds and the attitude of the freewheeling, pre-bebop jazz era, when, as he puts it, “country music and jazz and swing were in this weird wild-west period.” This time he incorporates the sensibility, if not the outright sound, of early rock and roll, a similarly hybrid form driven by rhythm, personality and a passion for the electric guitar.
