Luka Bloom - Zwischen den Generationen
Der Sänger Luka Bloom steht zwischen den Generationen. Der 1955 mit bürgerlichem Namen Kevin Barry Moore in Newbridge, County Kildare, geborene irische Songwriter ist mit Musik von Ralph McTell, John Martyn oder Planxty aufgewachsen. In seinen eigenen Songs und dem beeindruckenden Gitarrenspiel lenkt er die Folktraditionen in neue Richtungen und verleiht ihnen mitunter das Flair von Jazz, Rock und Punk. Das Jahr 2022 nutzte er, um für sein neues Dreifachalbum Wave Up To The Shore fünfzig Lieder aus fünf Jahrzehnten neu einzuspielen – puristisch nur mit Gesang und Gitarre. Mit diesem kommt er im April auf Deutschlandtour. Was denkt diese Irish-Folk-Ikone über die aktuelle heimische Szene? Was war früher besser? Und was ist für junge Musikerinnen und Musiker heute leichter? Genug Themen, um mit dem Künstler ein Interview zu führen.
Interview: UDO HINZ
Folker.World - 6 März 2023

LUKA BLOOM - WAVE UP TO THE SHORE
"Luka Bloom, Irish songwriter, Christy Moore’s brother, and who for my money is the song laureate of the west of Ireland has just released Wave Up To The Shore, 51 songs over 3 CDs. The half century of songs starts with the title track, the first one he ever wrote in 1972 and brings you right through his career; from 16 to 61.

I use more Luka Bloom songs as a soundtrack to my life than any other artists - it seems! Here I Surmise is new 51 tracks, triple CD - decades of his songs re-recorded!!"

Interview: Luka adjusts to change of pace ahead of Ennis gig for homeless
When singer/songwriter Luka Bloom was first approached with the idea of headlining a concert in Ennis supporting homeless people he didn’t hesitate to say yes.
The Kildare native, who has been living in Clare for the past decade, will be performing in the Clare Easter Concert this April 21 in glór. The concert, organised by homelessness campaigner Josie O’Brien, was due to be held last Christmas but was postponed due to Covid and Luka is now looking forward to getting on stage....

November Album Review: Luka Bloom, "Out of the Blue"
".....Admittedly, the first – even the second – time through "Out of the Blue", there may be a part of you expecting that matchless voice to make its presence felt. In that sense, the album really is a Covid-inspired creation because it invites you to consider the ways we’ve been compelled to cope with the pandemic’s numerous impacts, even on a highly individualized level. Perhaps the trick here is to envision that aspect of Bloom missing here, to supply in your own mind the emotionality, the passion his voice and his words bring – if "I Hear You" or "Harbour Bell" had lyrics, what would he be singing about?...."

"...It goes without saying that the playing is brilliant. It also needs said that it is spiritually beautiful. We have waited long for a Luka Bloom instrumental record. It seems so obvious I wonder why it has taken until now. Then as you listen, still in disheveled unscheduled lockdown, you realise that it couldn’t have come at a better time… not if it tried!"

He offers an honest and heartfelt assessment of what life is like for an independent musician during the Covid-19 pandemic // Last week, Hot Press reported on Luka Bloom's announcement that he wasn't going to service his new album, Bittersweet Crimson, to Spotify and other streaming services. This triggered a wave of reaction from other Irish musicians who talked about their experiences - good, bad and indifferent - of streaming. Having read all the comments, Luka has sent an open letter via-our man Stuart Clark, which clarifies his position and teases some of the issues out further.
