Internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter, Luka Bloom, has enjoyed seventeen years of successful worldwide tours, and released his eleventh album “Tribe”, in the UK in September 2007.


Like many Irish families Luka comes from a family of singers and songwriters, first going on tour with older brother, Christy Moore. In 1987 Luka went to the US and toured with The Pogues, The Violent Femmes, The Dixie Chicks, Hothouse Flowers and The Cowboy Junkies.

Warner Music, in Los Angeles, signed Luka in 1990 and over the next four years, recorded three albums for them. Following the success of these albums, Luka then went on to release a further six albums on his own “Big Sky Records” label.

Over the years Luka has brought his songs to clubs, theatres, festivals, bars and arenas all over the world. In the last 10 years he has concentrated in performing in Australia, Holland, Belgium and Germany, where he has been successfully headlining festivals and selling out large venues. Already this year, Luka has appeared at the Port Fairy Folk Festival and headlined at the Blue Mountains Music Festival, as part of a sell out Australian Tour.

Luka now turns his focus to the UK again. His incredibly gifted electro-acoustic guitar-playing guarantees an impassioned live performance of his original, poetic and melodic songs.
