UK based singer-songwriter Luke Jackson has developed an enviable reputation for himself in the Roots, Acoustic, Folk & Americana circuits by virtue of his acclaimed recordings and dynamic live performances, Luke regularly tours across Europe, USA and Canada. Between his debut album released in 2012, through to his latest release in 2022 are 5 records, including a live album ‘Solo, Duo, Trio’ which were all released to high praise and 5* reviews!
His 7 track EP in early 2021 of songs written during lockdown called ‘Of The Time’ is now available in CD format and garnered great reviews with Fatea magazine saying “Luke Jackson has gifted us with one of the most important and essential releases I’ve heard in quite some time and it was subsequently voted 2021 EP of the Year! 2022 turned out to be one of Luke's most successful years yet. It started with a prestigious support slot opening for Fairport Convention on their Winter Tour in February, a run of openers for Richard Thompson, two weeks songwriting and performing in Nashville, including a show at the iconic Bluebird Cafe, a run of shows supporting the legendary Marillion and to finish off the year, several openers with the wonderful Jools Holland.
Alongside all of this, Luke continues to tour relentlessly in his own right, either solo or as a trio. 2023 has been another exciting year seeing the release of his new single 'The Wire'.
