Luka Bloom

A bit different from most of artists who get attention here, also away from my usual musical intrest (aville-depmode...) but nevertheless one of my favourite artists is Luka Bloom.

He is a really amasing acoustic performer and makes lovely music. Live, alone on stage together with 3 guitars, he sets everyone on fire!

Best albums in my opinion are his debut Riverside, album Turf and his cover album Keeper of the flame.

Anyone familiar with his music?

Purely guitar based, with slight Irish folk influences.
Live he only plays solo acoustic guitar : one word : extraordinary

well, I love irish music, but usually guitar-based stuff really don't speak to me...but I'll give it a shot!

Yes indeed, he covered This is the Sea and also used a Mike Scott written song Sunny Sailor Boy.
Both great versions, especially the second live.
