I'm a big fan of Luka Bloom and know some others are on here too, so I thought I'd reproduce the following:

"And on we go......
Here's the latest news from the trench....
I am working on two records at the moment. I'm writing away for the next solo record, and that will take at least a year to bring to fruition.

However - I have been quietly working away since November '05 on a very different project. It's a collaboration with a great musician and music programmer who lives in County Clare. His name is Simon O'Reilly. Simon works all the hours god gives on his music, and when not doing that he surfs the sea below the Cliffs of Moher. I heard his record 'Tidelines' last year and instantly wanted to work with him. For years now, I have been waiting to meet someone with whom I could collaborate like this; and I am really enjoying this process. However, because it is such a different project, I have decided to take a new approach to releasing it.

We have on the website, a rough mix of one track for you all to hear. It's called 'I Am A River', and is representative of the feel of the record, though there are some really different tracks also.

If enough of you like the sound of this one track, and are willing to buy your copy in advance - like immediately, this money would help finance the finishing of this record. If say, 1000 people were willing to buy the record for 20 euros; that 1000 people would receive a copy signed by Simon and me; and you would receive a bonus extra track for your gesture of good faith!

We expect to have the record ready for release by February 1st 2007. I hope you enjoy this one song, and really look forward to letting ye hear the whole record.

Enjoy the summer (or winter down under),"
Luka

Resurrecting an amazingly ancient thread to note that Mr Bloom is currently about to embark on a wander around Germany and then the UK.
