Party: Luke Elliot (US)

Etter at Luke Elliot kom til Norge, for noen uker siden, har han spilt flere konserter det har gått gjetord om, og da er ikke vi snauere enn at vi kjører på med en ekstra konsert for oslofolket. På søndag kan dere som ikke fikk med dere noen av konsertene få oppleve dette før han reiser tilbake til USA, og dere som allerede har sett han, har muligheten igjen.

Dette burde dere ikke gå glipp av!!

LUKE ELLIOT (US)

Luke Elliot's music has been steadily gaining more and more attention since his debut EP, "Death of a Widow," was released by Yerbird Records in 2010. The EP gained him a dedicated fan base that followed him through a circuit of venues across the Northeast. The music, comprised of an eclectic mix of genres and ideas, gained him critical acclaim as an artist to pay attention to. Beginning in New York's Lower East Side, Elliot and his band quickly made their way from the dive bar scene to some of New York's more popular venues, from the Mercury Lounge to Webster Hall. Gaining a reputation as an ever-evolving live act, they began gaining popularity in Philadelphia, headlining venues such as the North Star, and the World Cafe Live.

in 2011, Luke was approached by director Paul Cantagallo to compose for a new film, "Benny the Bum." His first scoring effort brought light to his musical dexterity. Acknowledged previously as a live performer and recording artist alone, Elliot has become someone recognized for being able to play many roles. Writing the title song for the film began to give Luke prominence westward, as the picture won Best Local Film at the 2012 Philadelphia Independent Film Festival. He and his band, guitarist Jim McGee, bassist Ed Barber, and drummer Dan Peck, performed live at the historic First Unitarian Church for the Festival's film screening.

In 2013, Christa Shaub, Founder of Shaub Entertainment and former Senior A & R Director at Cherry Lane Music (BMG Chrysalis), took on Luke as a client. Shaub, who was instrumental in cultivating new business and played a pivital role in the signing of emerging artists John Legend and Rihanna, took an interest in Elliot at one of his appearances at the Mercury Lounge. With a busy tour schedule, Elliot began to develop more and more public and media attention. Highly esteemed music publications, such as American Songwriter, No Depression, The Deli Magazine, Popdose, The Examiner, and Aquarian Weekly featured Luke's then upcoming EP, "Provisions. The favorable reviews began spreading, and he was soon written about in Norway's largest publication, VG, by the acclaimed music critic and journalist, Eirik Mosveen. The international press spread throughout Europe, and Luke was soon offered a tour overseas, beginning in Scandanavia.

Teaming up with legendary producer, John Agnello, Luke has begun to work on a new record while touring.
