Luke Broughton is steadily becoming one the city\u2019s most revered singer-songwriters. Although the London born musician has drawn comparisons to the likes of Jeff Buckley and Sigur Ros, Broughton brings an emotionally charged presence to the stage that sees him stand out from his peers. Haunting lyrics, unique vocals, and a passionate performance, Luke takes his audiences on a journey and gives them an unforgettable experience.<\/p>\n

Support on the evening comes from the multi-talented LION\/S aka Leonie DuBarry-Gurr, who will be providing an audio-visual experience par excellence. This is a night that will be talked about for a long time to come.<\/p>\n
