Recorded at the legendary Konk Studios in London in March 2023, LAY IT DOWN is a love letter to some of Albert's favourite artists and biggest inspirations.
From Mark Knopfler's blistering Setting Me Up to Jimmy Webb's soaring piano ballad Too Young To Die, to The Everly Brothers' storming hit The Price Of Love, Albert's latest album sees his triumphant return to the studio, recording live, as one of the greatest guitarists ever.

One of the most respected and renowned guitarists in music history, Albert Lee has worked with The Everly Brothers, Eric Clapton, Emmylou Harris and The Crickets over his long and illustrious career.
The British-born country-rock artist started his career during the emerging rock 'n' roll scene of sixties London, when he swapped bands with the likes of Jimmy Page and Chris Farlowe. After moving to the U.S. and assimilating himself into the country music scene, Albert quickly garnered a reputation as one of the fastest guitar players in the business. He recorded a number of solo albums, and won a Grammy in 2002 for his contribution on 'Foggy Mountain Breakdown'. He continues to tour today, and plays his signature Ernie Ball Music Man Guitar.
