Recorded in the first six weeks of his Daughter's life, Theo is the sound of a young man discovering his fatherhood and, through a series of live vignettes, attempting to articulate and preserve the massiveness of emotion experienced at this time.
Each of these recordings offers a tangible window into the very bedroom-studio he now shares with his partner and child. Sharing an unprecedented glimpse into the intimacy and life defining love of this deeply inspirational period.
When his daughter arrived, Luke De-Sciscio felt called to capture something permanent from this devastatingly precious and disarmingly fleeting phase.
Memories and moments that could so easily have drifted into the blur of sleep deprivation were offered the chance to sing. The euphoria of discovering one?s love for their child, an inordinate cascade that can?t be described, was given space behind a microphone.
And, owing to the 16 prior albums that have refined his craft and gifted him the opportunity to seize the whims of his soul, Luke was able to ensnare something of the unspeakable.
A record which he describes, second only to his daughter, as the most beautiful thing he will ever produce.
Come and help us celebrate Luke's latest offering, at the Tin Church in Brokerswood, Bath.

‘Luke De-Sciscio ‘found his song-writing voice the old-fashioned way: by writing (and mostly not releasing) dozens upon dozens of folk songs, spread out across a decade, often while living on a boat with no electricity or heat’. – NPR His songs, mostly recorded live, winnow his music down to its most essential ingredients: a moment, a feeling and a level of poetic intensity akin to early Leonard Cohen or the writings of Rumi. In late 2019, Luke released the critically acclaimed Good Bye Folk Boy. Within weeks of its release Luke had found management, a booking agent and was booked to play SXSW. R.O.B.Y.N. was played on BBC6 music and I’m a Dream Fighting Out of a Man was picked up by Bob Boilen of NPR who described it as ‘just one of those songs’. In the months that followed, Luke played shows with the likes of Sam Amidon, Jessica Pratt and Laura Gibson, toured across Europe and America, selling out his first show in Geneva, Switzerland at Antigel Festival alongside Angel Olsen and Pomme and went on to secure support slots with legendary artists such as Yusuf / Cat Stevens at Montreux Jazz Festival and José Feliciano at SXSW.
