Celebrated Singer Songwriter Luke O’Shea has spent decades touring Australia absorbing insights and inspirations that he weaves throughout his finely crafted songs.

A sixteen time Golden Guitar winner, a recipient of The Bush Laureates ‘Golden Gum-Leaf’ Award, a 2022 Hands of Fame Inductee, and twice named the Australian Independent Country Music Artist of the Year, Luke O’Shea has a powerful and unmistakably Australian ‘voice’.
Drawing inspiration from the unique and everyday characters he meets and the heartbreaking and significant events of the past, O’Shea designs and delivers his songs to cut straight through the listener’s defences and, whilst there, respectfully enlightens and entertains.

Deeply passionate about this country of ours, Luke’s determination to Sing Up Australia and its people is at the heart of his songs.

“With his trademark green felt hat and five o’clock shadow, O’Shea is a fitting heir to the bush troubadours and larrikins of centuries past. The punter can almost taste the dust and haze of eucalyptus oil that hang so vibrantly in the singer’s imagination.”

“His beautiful voice, clear and not overdone, captured both my attention and my spirit.”

“No matter how many times I see Luke O’Shea play live - his ability to completely captivate an audience - never loses its power.”
