Back in 2015, Swiss guitarist Nicolas Meier was playing a low-key gig with violinist Lizzie Ball at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London. “It was Jeff Beck,” he says. The trio then played a local gig, after which Beck said, “Why don’t we go on tour with Brian Wilson?”“It was all very natural,” Meier says. I was influenced by my memories of how he played, but of course, I don’t play like him.” He laughs. “But being in a Jeff Beck mood never hurts.”
