About the Event
Luka Bloom – one of modern Ireland’s favourite songwriters
Luka Bloom has had a hugely successful singing career all over the world and is renowned for his innovative style, inspiring lyrics … and a masculine Irish brogue.
He was born Kevin Barry Moore in 1955. He is the younger brother of singer Christy Moore. When he was still just a teenager, Bloom worked as a backing musician for Moore, but he wanted to develop his own style and spent much of his youth writing songs.
Bloom hit the stage aged just fourteen
When he was 14, he went on a tour of English folk clubs as support act for his brother, Christy. In 1976, Christy recorded two of Blooms’s songs, Jenny of the Sun and Wave Up to the Shore.
Bloom attended Newbridge College where he formed a band called Aes Triplex with his brother, Andy, and friend, Pat Kilbride.
