A PLATINUM-selling, critically acclaimed artist from Ireland will perform in Wigton next month.

Jack Lukeman will perform at the Market Hall on Thursday, June 2.

Jack has toured the UK as special guest on tours by artists as varied as Imelda May, Jools Holland, The Proclaimers and Neil Sedaka.

In recent years Lukeman has devoted more of his time to winning a growing fanbase in the UK and abroad.

Later this year he is headlining the 6,000 capacity 3Arena in Dublin, so he largely won’t be performing in Ireland other than that show.

The best music artists know that the world of the recording studio and onstage are two entirely different mediums – Lukeman’s recordings are colourful, absorbing collections, but it’s in the live environment, where his stage craft and desire to inspire really take flight. Despite the many achievements he has notched up in his lengthy career, Lukeman still has the hunger and drive to take his music to new audiences.

From clubs to concert halls, theatres to festivals, Lukeman has the performing power and compelling presence to win over the most demanding of crowds. One of which will be in Bonn, Germany in July when he opens for Sting.

Tickets for the performance cost £15 and are available through Eventbrite.
