Lux Harmonium

Like the unearthing of an Alan Lomax recording or a gem from some back-room of Cecil Sharpe house; Luke Jones' Lux Harmonium is doubtless to be cited next to modern day guitar virtuosos' James Blackshaw, Glenn Jones or the late Jack Rose. Details are few (seemingly intentionally) but this double A-Side is handpicked from an album of recordings by the Devon based Luke Jones. Treading somewhere between the delta folk world of John Fahey or Leo Kottke and an altogether more outsider pop of Robert Wyatt; Lux Harmonium manage to take a menagerie of influences and make them sound altogether.

Adam Sweet

“Very occasionally, music is blessed with a talent that can stop you in your tracks and you say to yourself, “wow, that’s good!” You might not know why you think that, but something inside you inherently knows that the talent is exceptional. Adam Sweet is one of those talents. Whether it’s an electric or acoustic guitar in his hands it makes no difference, the quality and originality shines through.
