Luke Smith [2023] - Lockdown 2.0 [Self Released]


Luke Smith is a keyboardist from Manchester who has worked with renowned artists including Chaka Khan, Whitney Houston, Roy Ayers, Frank McComb, B. B. King, Rosie Gaines, BeBe & CeCe Winans, Andrae Crouch as well as pop/rock artists George Michael, Amy Winehouse, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins and Lulu. 

He spent two years with Hot Chocolate as their main keyboard player on their European tour in 1992. He later formed his own jazz band supporting Roy Ayres, Hugh Masekela and Earl Klugh among others.

In 1995 he moved to London as Music Director of the West End musical show 'Mama, I Want to Sing!'.

He began working with George Michael in 2003 on his "Patience" album and performed with him at the inaugural concert of the new Wembley Stadium in 2007.

Having been hospitalised with Covid-19 and in intensive care, Luke decided that if he survived that it was time to release solo material, as he didn't want his legacy  to be that he died with some great music on his hard drive! His debut single "Travellin'" was released in May 2020.

His latest single "Lockdown 2.0", is a jazz-funk instrumental which, not surprisingly, was written during Covid lockdown.

Luke featured here in  Nov '21 with a Linslee Remix of his third single "It's Time" which featured Roy Ayers and Em-Cee.
