25-year old singer songwriter Luke Bingham is the UKs hottest new pop talent. His first release with 3 Beat "All I Know" was a collaboration with Matrix & Futurebound - Luke wrote the track and provided the vocal. It reached number 29 in the UK charts. His latest track ...
Shut It Down features the MC talents of Krept and Konan - South London duo Play Dirty - the UK undergrounds punch line Kings. Most recently, Luke has been in the studio with three times Grammy winner Ken Nelson, the producer of Coldplays first 2 albums and of their biggest hit Fix You
A gifted singer and songwriter, Luke was snapped up by 3Beat in 2011 after he was added to the BBC Introducing playlist. He quickly scored a support slot with Trey Songz before being whisked off to LA with Radio 1 for a live performance on Sunset Boulevard. Not a bad start for an artist without a single release to his name.
More than just a lucky break, this chain of events was a product of hard work and single-minded determination. Growing up in Leicester Luke knew he wanted to sing, wanted to be an artist so he just kept writing and playing and slowly things began to take shape. With the song Nothing to lose Luke knew he had a hit on his hands. 1Xtras Twin B agreed, giving the track its first play on the station. The exposure led to appearances alongside Tinchy Stryder, Tinie Tempah, The Game and Ms Dynamite.
Lukes songwriting shows an extraordinary flair and his often emotionally raw lyrics hide nothing. With his easy charm, natural swagger and sultry voice he is all set to take the world by storm.
