Guit-steel wizard Junior Brown will be playing with the Les Paul Trio at The Iridium on Monday. This should be a real treat! Junior plays a double-neck instrument of his own design - half guitar, half 8-string steel. He switches necks effortlessly in mid-tune, often while singing.
The Iridium stage is known best as the home of Les Paul. Often called "The Father of the Electric Guitar", Paul performed at The Iridium weekly for more than a decade until his passing in 2009. Today, the Les Paul Trio continues in his honor, showcasing the diversity of the electric guitar every Monday night.
