Luke Burr is without question one of the UK’s hottest emerging music artists for 2019. He has been described by music media and industry execs as a raw mix of ‘early Amy Winehouse meets John Legend’.
This February saw the release of Luke’s hotly anticipated new single ‘Heaven’. Luke has teamed up with the producers behind Kojey Radical, Wretch 32 and Steff London to create a timeless masterpiece that effortlessly showcases his world-class vocals merging musical genres and pushing barriers. Luke has been splitting his time between London and Los Angeles where he has been busy working in the studio with renowned songwriter Toby Gadd (‘All of Me’ – John Legend and ‘If I Were A Boy’ Beyonce).
‘Heaven’ is the perfect demonstration of Luke’s truly unique and soulful vocal ability and he has attracted support from the likes of Apple, Spotify, Shazam, Sofar Sounds and BBC Introducing.
Luke has worked and toured with some huge industry names which has helped him establish his unique and spellbinding signature sound. He was hand-picked to be the main male vocalist on tour with Rudimental, which saw him play to soldout venues both in Europe and Australia.
As well as several sold out London headline gigs, recent performances for Luke have included The Great Escape, a BBC Introducing live session, VIP performance at Shazam’s UK HQ, Communion’s Notting Hill music night, Sofar Sounds (LA & London), and a performance at Ticketmaster’s HQ.
His next headline London show will take place at St Pancras Church on 10th May with tickets going on sale this coming Friday (15th February). With sell-out headline shows in both London and LA, an exciting tour announcement, US radio play and backing by Beats 1, 2019 looks set to be an unforgettable year for Luke. Watch closely because at only 23, Luke Burr is set to cement himself as a key industry name this year; both in the studio and onstage on both sides of the pond.
