Manage episode 407235755 series 3559057
Luke Mitchem is American singer/songwriter whose music taps into the flowing musical rivers of folk, blues, and ballads. His music is heartfelt, poetic, and exemplifies the ups and downs of life. Luke’s journey with creating music began nearly 15 years ago, when he decided to pick up the guitar and learn a few chords. Influenced by not only current and past musicians such as Bruce Springsteen, Elliott Smith, Jim Croce and Josh Ritter, among several others, Luke’s music incorporates poetic and thoughtful lyrics. Luke has shared the stage with his fellow peers, including David Dondero, Damien Jurado, The White Buffalo, Bobby Long, and Joshua James, who also produced Luke’s last two albums, including Luke’s sixth solo album, Which Wolf Will You Feed?. Luke is currently working on his seventh studio album, titled All Those Mourning Hymns, as well as a film adaptation of his song and short story titled The Saints of Vernon County. Luke will be returning to the performance stage in the fall of 2023 at the infamous Jammin Java in Vienna, Virginia, where Luke’s performing career began. lukemitchem.com lukemitchem.bandcamp.com https://www.instagram.com/lukemitchem/ https://www.facebook.com/lukemitchemmusic/ TEQUILA: Cazadores Blanco
