MOKA LIVE presents An Evening With one of Irelands finest and Internationally acclaimed singer-songwriters, LUKA BLOOM.

His new album sees a return to the raw live sound of his earlier records and brimming with inspiring lyrics and sumptuous melodies "Eleven Songs" reminds us why Bloom is such a master of the concert stage. The album was co-produced by Luka and David Odlum (ex-Kila and ex-The Frames) and recorded in Grouse Lodge in County Westmeath.

Luka Bloom comes from a family of singers and songwriters and first went on tour many moons ago with older brother Christy Moore. In 1987 Luka went to the US and toured with The Pogues, The Violent Femmes, Hothouse Flowers and The Cowboy Junkies, and in all has now enjoyed eighteen years of successful worldwide tours.

Over the years Luka has brought his songs to clubs, theatres, festivals, bars and arenas all over the world.  In the last 10 years he has concentrated on performing in Australia, Holland, Belgium and Germany. His incredibly gifted electro-acoustic guitar playing guarantees an impassioned live performance of his original, poetic and melodic songs.
