LUKA BLOOM: 23rd of May, 2025 is a special day.
I will release my 24th record on the day of my 70th Birthday.
There was a little doubt in 2024 that I would see my 70th year.
24 days in hospital, an open-heart operation in November ’24,
has given me a second wind, and a new lease of life……
In the months before going to hospital, I wrote and recorded 11 songs
and 2 instrumentals, in the hope that I would get to see my 70th year.
And so it is……
The record is called A SECOND WIND, and is dedicated to the surgeon,
the doctors, the anaesthetist, the nurses who kept me alive last year.
And the family and friends who supported me during this time.
There will be some shows, when I am a little stronger.
Triple CD containing 50 tracks from across
the past 50 years of songs either written
or learned by Luka Bloom

I HEAR YOU by Luka Bloom

Filmed by Matthew Kelly at The Cliffs of Moher Retreat Centre,
Liscannor, Co Clare (March 2021)
So begins the first song to be released from my forthcoming 22nd record Bittersweet Crimson.
The song, The Beauty of Everyday Things, was written in 2019, during a glorious summer in North West Clare.
I wanted to celebrate the simplicity of life moving outdoors.
Coming together and having a laugh doing ordinary things.
This feels even more perfect now, in 2020.
Summer is here. Life is short.
Lets get out there.
And make the most of summer.
