Luke Concannon (www.lukeconcannon.com) is best known for being one half of the underground Folk Hip hop duo ‘Nizlopi', who somehow scored a #1 hit in the UK & Ireland with the JCB Song. Ed Sheeran (who did work experience for the band as a teens & co-wrote with Luke) cites Luke & Nizlopi as a major influence on his work.
After 8 intense years with Nizlopi, Luke was burned out and hitchhiked to Palestine from England, eventually volunteering as a peace worker in the West Bank. Song writing & playing as he went, the songs later formed his debut solo album (2013’s Give It All).
Luke fell in love with American Classical singer Stephanie Hollenberg and moved to Boston MA in 2016. ‘In The Sea' EP was released in 2017 inspired by the new depth of intimacy in his life. In 2021 he released new album ‘Ecstatic Bird In The Burning’, inspired by the power of active hope in a burning world.
