"Luke.... is someone whose talent shines all on it's own. As a solo singer and guitar player he is incredibly skillful and engaging with his audience. When playing for a mixed-age event for us, he wowed the younger older guests alike. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Luke is a consummate professional and more importantly, an exceptional performer. He has appeared at a variety of events for us of all sizes and types and is always a key feature and highlight of these events. I could not recommend Luke more highly as a musician and as a professional.
