“This New Morning is a treasure: beautifully sung, played and produced. It’s blooming great” – Vulgo

“With each successive album, Luka Bloom digs deeper and gazes wider… he is on top form.” – The Irish Times ****

“Latest album finds him in familiar mode, singing the kind of rousing anthems and tender ballads that have made him a huge live draw.” – Hot Press

Since the release of his new album ‘This New Morning’, Luka Bloom has captured the hearts of many with his extraordinary singing and writing skills. His song ‘A Seed Was Sown’, which articulates with wondrous lyrics, the impact of the Queen’s visit to him and to Ireland last year. The lasting impression on the song was made apparent following endless radio requests:

“ It’s rarely that I play the same song two days in a row. But, the demand for this (A Seed Was Sown) have been absolutely overwhelming” – Rónan Collin, RTE Radio One

An Internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter, and recording artist; Luka Bloom has enjoyed over twenty years of success worldwide. Since the release of one of the all time Irish classics ‘Riverside’ recorded in 1990, people from all corners of the globe have embraced the true beauty of this remarkable musician. He has a catalog of quality recordings (14 last count), which would make any budding songwriter, aspire to.

“Bloom never fails to deliver an entertaining show, and you are hereby advised to catch him at a town near you” – MIKE FARRAGHER – IRISH VOICE

Irish audiences have an opportunity to hear Luka in concert. He will be joined by friend and guitar hero, Steve Cooney.
