LUKE KOTERAS

Luke Koteras was born in Sydney on July 28, he is well known for his optimism,
social appeal and passion to succeed. Between having all of these traits and his
natural fearless nature, he always can step up and conquer any challenge
presented before him. Most of the Worldly population would classify him as a
virtuoso concert hall musician with the enhanced ability to perform and
entertain. He shatters stereotypes among this “image” driven industry, with his
God given abilities to write, produce, create and perform original music.
Luke was born of Polish, Irish, English and Australian descent. Growing up he
expressed his talents through his many concerts and shows held in schools,
fetes, shopping centres and talent quests. In his teen years, he was educated
through AIM (Australian Institute of Music.) When not at college he was working
‘digging ditches’ for his plumber dad, in this way basic income was taken care
of giving Luke the opportunity to explore, more in depth, his passion to play
guitar. He started by auditioning for bands and performing in talent quests. At
one such quest he won his first ‘studio time’ and came to the recognition of his
current management, record label and music publisher ‘Fogsongs’. He also worked
in various covers bands and original funk band ‘d’Livr’, with whom he toured
across China in 2004. Luke’s about to launch his second solo CD ‘FATE’ following
on from the great success of his earlier CD ‘ACOUSTICALLY SPEAKING’. Luke has
recently returned to Australia from a successful European tour of discovery
covering the UK and France.
Everyday Luke, now 20 years of age, inspires young people to not give up on
their dream and to feel good about who they are. He leads by example to live
everyday to its fullest. This world is his stage; his life is a template for
others to follow, he is Luke Koteras.

LUKE KOTERAS It's a long way from the green and pleasant land of Australia’s Sydney burbs to Liverpool UK, the cola and rock n roll capital of the universe. Yet that's the journey that the Sydney-based virtuoso undertook to realise his star making debut LP, OFATE. Luke only seriously kicked in mid 2005 with shows at The Basement and The Vanguard in Sydney and The FUSE Festival Adelaide. The life of Luke Koteras has been one seriously evolved trip. For starters he seems to revel in doing things to perfection and he has the ability to pull it off. Whispers about Luke Koteras started to spread when he scored recording time with ‘Foghorn Records’ whilst still 17 years old. By late 2005, the debut EP, 'Acoustically Speaking', had been blessed with high sales at all his gigs. Brought up by music-loving parents, Luke was fed a steady diet of The Who, The Kinks, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Beatles, Bob Dylan, Nirvana and Red Hot Chilli Peppers which, combined with Luke’s rural (Camden NSW) isolation, left him with no option but to play guitar himself. As a boy Luke was winning many trophies and awards as an outstanding Guitar playing talent before going on to complete his musical studies at AIM. Learning his licks from intently listening to Tommy Emmanuel through to Jimmy Page and then by personally swapping licks with Joseph Calderazzo, Steve Flack, Bill Chambers and many other great Aussie guitar players. Now as Frontman and guitarist of his own band, 19-year-old Luke, bassist Alex (27) and 28-year-old drummer Andy, play vibrant and sweeping acoustic and electric rock. Sure, Luke Koteras is of an age when he should still be at war with raging hormones and jamming 'Stairway to Heaven' in the garage. But don't let anyone try to convince you that his youth lessens his competence as a true musician and songwriter nor lessens the knockout blow of his debut LP ‘FATE’. A voice that will be heard loud and clear throughout the recording industry and beyond!
