Bob Seger meets Lynyrd Skynyrd and Tom Petty. Luke Daniel is making his own scene and crossing over several genres in the process. If you’re checking a box, you can check Americana, but if you’re adding songs to your playlist, there’s plenty of options to work with. Rock & Roll, Country, Blues, and Soul to name a few: you could put him in any of these categories. The only problem is, you can’t choose just one, it’s not possible. Luke’s catalogue of all original music showcases and eclectic mix of influences spanning decades of music consumption. The son of a grocery store manager and a preschool teacher, Luke grew up in small town Missouri. Like most artists, Luke developed a deep and abiding love of music at a very early age. “Music was always part of our lives growing up and my dad loved sharing his favorite music with me. We listened to a lot of (Otis) Redding, Isaac Hayes and B.B. King; but we also listened to Janice Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jethro Tull and Led Zeppelin.” Luke’s debut album, Rock n Roll Americana, is authentically original and refreshing. Produced by Derek Hames at Edgewater Music Group (The Teague Brothers, Statesboro Revue, Roxy Roca) the 9-track album was funded by a successful Indiegogo campaign. Rock ’n’ Roll Americana released worldwide with Edgewater Music Group and The Orchard in September 2022 and charted #65 on the Americana Music Association’s Albums Chart. New music is in the works with anticipated 2024 release dates. As a globally published artist with Universal Music, Luke’s music has been featured on TV and radio around the world. Highlights of those placements include The History Channel, Dancing with the Stars, Velocity Network, Esquire Network, Access Hollywood and the 2020, 2021 and 2022 Seattle Mariner’s live broadcast on Root Sports Northwest.

Writing regularly at the Austin BMI office, Luke is currently planning for his next full length release and his new single, Smoking Weed with Jesus, releases to radio and streaming platforms, in March of 2024!
