Artist:Laurie Luke

Laurie Luke has worked with members of POWDERFINGER, GYROSCOPE and COG to bring his music to life. The Perth based self taught multi instrumentalist sings, plays guitar, bass, drums, percussion and keys. Luke records and engineers the majority of his own material too. Topping that he's come back from the dead, relearnt how to walk, talk and play music all over again. One night Luke received a phone call that would change his life. His girlfriend had been involved in a serious hit-and-run car accident. Luke rushed to hospital and unexpectedly collapsed from a brain haemorrhage while seeing her in ER. Doctors rushed in to save his life. During surgery part of his skull was removed to relieve the pressure building up inside. If he hadn’t been in hospital already, doctors said he would have died within hours. After 6 days in a coma fighting for his life. Laurie slurred a few words. "Can I still play guitar?" Honouring the1year anniversary of that fateful day Luke releases "Long Way Home".
