“Luke is up there with the very top exponents of mandolining, he puts a drive and feeling into the tunes which allow a range of expressive tones and shades.” – The Living Tradition magazine,Scotland
Tasmanian (Australia) mandolin virtuoso Luke Plumb in concert with Stanley Greenthal. Luke’s work with Shooglenifty (renowned Scottish folkrock band), Irish folk legend Andy Irvine (Patrick Street/Planxy/Mozaik), and many collaborations in Australia have made him a driving force on the acoustic music global stage. His 2009 solo album, “A Splendid Notion,” features just mandolin and percussion. Recent recordings with Andy Irvine (2016 “Precious Heroes”), and Kate Burke (2019 duo album) have gotten rave reviews. “Enough imagination and innovation to inspire a new generation … folk music of breathtaking originality.” Bruce Elder – The Age/SMH
