THE MAN IS ALIVE-2 DVD/ 1 CD (PAL ALL REGIONS)~~AN AFTERNOON IN KILDARE
The setting for this afternoon gathering couldn't have been more inspiring. The open fields of Kildare and the Bog of Allen are the backdrop for music with friends and family. We get an intimate feeling with Luka in his home, where many of his most recent songs were written. Water Ballerina, You Couldn't Have Come At A Better Time, are still lyrically emotional classics.

MY NAME IS LUKA (DOCUMENTARY)
In this feature we get a personal insight into Luka: the artist, the writer and performer from his home in County Kildare and with his family in County Clare. This documentary shines light on the inspirations for his songs and the natural settings of Ireland which bring out his expressive lyrics. THE MAN IS ALIVE - LIVE CD
The diversity of the performance from Dublin and Kildare has made for a fine collection of new and old songs with magical moments captured throughout. Romantic songs like Love Is A Place I Dream Of and the call for Peace On Earth are among the many beautiful tracks on this Live CD.

TRIBE~Tribe~In Autumn 2005, I was sent a copy of Tidelines, an album of original instrumental music composed and recorded by Simon O'Reilly. Its a lovely record, but I immediately was intrigued with the possibility that Simon and I might do some work together. I visited Simon's studio in County Clare, and we hit it off. So over the next months Simon created music and sounds, and posted them to me to my home in Kildare. Not once did we sit and play together. I listened to simon's sounds and created lyrics and vocal melodies based on his music.After about 6 months, we felt we had enough material to make a record. At this point, I invited David Odlum to mix the record and record the vocals. david has recorded The Frames, and gemma hayes and many others for years. He works in Black Box, a remarkable rural studio in France.The result is TRIBE, a unique project in my working life. I play guitar on only 2 tracks. For once in my working life I got to simply be a singer.Simon produced and co-wrote the record with me; and we also have some lovely guest performers, including a recording debut of my son Robbie, who does a cool backing vocal on the title track!Well done to all who helped complete this record. We hope the people love it half as much as we do!Pedal on,Luka Bloom

No matter where you go, there you are12.Thank you for bringing me here 13. Larry Redicon’s BowThe album's opener, Primavera is a delicious taster of Bloom's vocal elasticity, as well as his emotional maturity. "Me, see me now, I am August oakleaf/ You, yes you are, you are Primavera". A delicate glimpse of the contradictions and conundrums of the ageing process that few artists ever deign to admit. 'Gypsy Music' reeks of a hankering for a glimpse at the new world of Eastern Europe. Scaffolded by Ken Edge's clarinet and Eithne Ni Chathain's haunting backing vocals, Luka Bloom conjures a world where more is unknown than known: a rarity for all of us who live in a time where knowledge is power and information is everything. Innocence's title track will strike a cord with anyone who harbours distance memories of church incense and a childlike fascination in the mysterious ritual of benediction. But it's much more than that; 'Innocence' is a glorious valediction to a time when inexperience was something to be relished rather than something to bring an embarrassed flush to the cheek. ~INNOCENCE - CD|BSCD005|~638~9731~Luka Bloom~
