Hi Ralph!
Lepers Produtcions present: Luke Lukas - llll

Lepers Produtcions present: Luke Lukas - llll

NEW 2009 ISSUE FOR  Lepers Produtcions
It’s free, more than ever, at  www.lepers.it
lprs038  - Luke Lukas - llll
Luke Lukas is back with  an album full of that gleeful gloom that made us love him at first sight. His trustworthy 4-tracks and him go their separate ways so he's now presenting 12 perfectly arranged folk songs to us. Luke reveals himself as a kind soul, but like the western movies taught us, a dreadful killer always hides under every placid looking Texan.
 "Leaving his strongly lo-fi sound that impressed us the first time, he treasures the recipe, packing in this new plain, delightful work a caring love for vocals, which are worthy of Neutral Milk hotel, with a touch of Chordettes feel." Daniele Dileo - Lab Magazine
