Describing his performance as “a cheeky yet soulful style” this South Sudanese, Kenyan/ Australian youngster describes his inspirations as being “African styled music and a mix in of westernised music. I was born and raised in Nairobi Kenya, lived with lots of family and we enjoyed music as a part of our lives.
It was an interesting life; enjoying the outdoors, music was always a part of my life, I loved to listen, enjoyed singing almost every day of my life, and sharing different views on favourite artists with family and friends”.
Growing up listening to the likes of Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra to Usher, Alicia Keys and Bruno Mars ... you can't go wrong with inspiration like that!
Lueth started doing gigs in the NSW Central West back in 2012, “in fact one of my first gigs was at the Schnitzel Bar here in Bathurst.”
Talking of the transition from Sydney shows to the NSW Central West he say’s “It's different, I feel there's been a growth of art culture in the west more and more. The music and night scene in Sydney has slowed so much that the shift has turned towards these side of the mountains”.
Lueth has endless reviews praising his amazing vocals, performances and the ability to “work a crowd” plus comments such as "Amazing mix of old and new songs, he has an amazing voice"!
