Luke Howard Signs to Faber Alt.

We are delighted to announce we have signed the wonderful composer and pianist, Luke Howard to the Faber Alt. roster.

Luke Howard is an Australian Music Prize long-listed composer signed to UK label Mercury KX. He has toured extensively internationally and released several records, including the ARIA-nominated All That Is Not Solid and The Sand That Ate The Sea. He has worked with film and theatre extensively, working amongst others with Back To Back Theatre and the Royal Ballet in Covent Garden. Luke is one of Australia’s foremost practitioners of contemporary classical music whose work continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

Howard’s music has been described as “absolutely heavenly” (Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC Radio 6) and “an ambient masterclass” (Musos’ Guide), but words cannot capture the potency of his enthralling compositions.

Luke is currently working on new music.

“It is an absolute pleasure to add Luke to our Faber Alt. roster. I’ve enjoyed his music for so many years now, ever since I first heard ‘Portrait Gallery’ back in 2013. For me, Luke’s music is simply beautiful, full of space, light and reflection, and we are hugely proud to have the opportunity to represent his new work going forward.”

Lucy Holliday, Head of A&R

“A fan of Faber’s books since I was little, it’s an honour to share a roster with artists like Keaton Henson, Anna Meredith, and Valgeir Sigurðsson.”
