Luke Michielsen’s music is bright indie folk. His songs are full of fine melodies and thoughtful lyrics performed with skillful guitar playing and a natural voice.

On the success of his 2014 full-length Oh Surround Me, which was named “Pick of the Week” by CBC Radio, Luke has toured Canada extensively as a solo folk singer songwriter. Audiences are endeared by his comedic stage banter and impressive catalogue of songs. He recently released a single called Berlin, ON, which ponders the history of the renaming of his home city Kitchener, in 1916.

Oh Surround Me, was funded by the Ontario Arts Council. Produced with longtime collaborator Mike Langford and nearly 18 session musicians, the song arrangements and overall soundscape doesn’t fall short. The songs Every Time I Come Home, January Snow and Well Maintained have been featured on several CBC Radio One programs.
