Likened to artists such as Ed Sheeran, Frank Turner, Mumford & Sons and Nizlopi, Luke Ferre has an ever growing following of dedicated fans everywhere he plays.
Only 18, but already causing quite a stir on the unsigned circuit, having played support slots for a broad spectrum of acts including Slade, The Hoosiers, China Crisis, Gabrielle Aplin and The Blanks (Ted’s Band from the TV show Scrubs) on their respective tours, as well as being featured on BBC Introducing following the success of his last EP.
With major labels already waiting in the wings, Luke’s forthcoming EP is set to launch him to the next level when it’s released this spring, coinciding with his first headline tour of the UK.
In his spare time, Luke likes playing solitaire, eating chocolate digestives whole, and talking to his pet goldfish, Marcus.
“Emotive lyrics, good vibe, lovely voice!” – Luke Concannon, Nizlopi

“Man, that was awesome! So much energy!” – Ted from Scrubs
