Lucas

As soon as Lucas takes the stage, you know you're in for a great night. These guys are so much fun and really bring a great vibe to any venue. Individually, the boys are all accomplished musicians and together they are very hard to beat. With an incredible repertoire of over 200 songs, they always have the right mix for the right occasion.
Lucas have played several overseas tours for the UK military and have travelled to Cyprus, Falklands etc to entertain the troops. The video on this page is from a show for the troops in Cyprus.
Lucas have also acted as backing band for the Neighbours star Ben Nicholas (AKA Stingray)on his 2007 tour and for Neighbours legend Alan Fletcher (AKA Dr Karl Kennedy) on his Oct 2009 tour which sold out at University venues throughout the UK.They have since backed Alan on all his UK tours.On September 27 2012 Lucas were chosen to act as Alan Fletchers backing band for a special one off appearance at Shepherds Bush Walkabout in support of UK mens health charities.
In 2012 Lucas toured the UK as part of the marketing launch of Disney funded comedy movie "A Few Best Men" and they played throughout the UK to raise awareness of this great movie throughout the Summer.
The Lucas boys are talented musicians and great guys who have a lot of fun on stage.
In Aug 2011 they were featured on Sky TVs Show And Tell Programme performing (broadcast Sept 2011)performing at a bridal shower with a difference featuring the Lucas boys with the bride on lead vocals as they ran through a Bandeoke/Rockaoke set.
They have also performed for the launches of several W11 sing games.

New for 2013 Lucas can be booked with their Beat The Band show which is a Pop Quiz with live band and audience participation...details available upon request.
In 2015 Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) came to one of Johnny's solo gigs and said "I loved what you did with the loop pedal, there was so much going on it was like 5D experience!"
The single Your UFO was debuted on CITV where he also was interviewed on the TV show, Scrambled. Not to mention His single, The Best Days made airplay on both BBC Radio 1 and 2, in the same week, which is unheard of for an unsigned act.
Johnny completed a 30 date University tour between playing at many weddings , parties and private events.

I just wanted to let you know that we were really pleased with Lucas. They played last weekend at our wedding. They were reliable and in good contact and everyone had a fantastic night. Thank you - we will definitely be recommending them to friends in the future.

-Ali and David June 2014

Dear Lucus,
We recently saw you perform at a friends Wedding in London and were very impressed with both the type/style of music and the range of tracks you performed

-James Hoad

I had to write and tell you how fantastic Johnny and the guys from Lucas were on Saturday night!

Having never booked a band before, and going purely from the comments of feedback on your website, it couldn’t have been any better. From start to finish, the whole process has been so professional, and the music – what can I say, my feet are still hurting because I couldn’t stop dancing. We’ve had such lovely comments from our friends who cannot wait to book the band for their parties. Even the owners of the mobile bar said they were the best they’ve seen in a long time, and they go to 100’s of parties!

Thank you so much & hope to be in touch again soon.

-Sharon xx May 2013

Immense!!! Lucas travelled all the way to Fowey in Cornwall to play at out wedding and delivered on every level. We had people who make a habit of not dancing up on the dance floor moshing away. The band are all very professional, on time and really mellow guys. Cannot recommend them enough. Hear them or book them now - you will not be dissapointed!

Can't recommend them highly enough.

The ships company loved the music and atmosphere which Lucas created and would like to thank them for being part of the CSE group and coming out to entertain the troops."

"Hello LMM I just wanted to get intouch with you to say how fantastic "Lucas" were at O'Neills Soho last night!!! They were simlpy superb!!! I travelled to London yesterday afternoon (from Market Harborough, Leicestershire), just for a night out and to locate some good food/entertainment and stumbled across O'Neills very late on. The guys were playing their first session and Wow! I stayed right to the end. Their interaction with the whole building was a delight to be part of. So in a world where critisism is all too easy to bleat about I want to say WELL DONE LUCAS, you put a massive smile on my face, your antics and playlist brought strangers togther to talk and dance and my, WHAT A NIGHT. I WILL look forward to coming down to see you again and soon. THANK YOU. Sophie Rawlinson-Peck. Utterly superb night." May 2011

�I first saw Lucas three years ago and thought they were amazing. I now fly them out to Nice every year to play at my venue, and it always ends up being the best weekend of the year.�
Venue manager, Nice

�I booked Lucas for my 30th birthday bash and they were just unbelievable. We had so much fun and it was all down to guys in the band. They were a pleasure to deal with and can�t recommend them enough.�
Martin Jurica, Cambridge

"I know it's been 3 months since our Wedding, but I just wanted to let you know how fantastic Lucas were.
Johnny Lucas called me 2 days before the Wedding to double check timings and that all was ok.
They arrived promptly and set up, there was no fuss or hassle.
The music was fantastic, just what we had wanted and all our guests thought they were brilliant!
The real shame is that it's all over - but I have been asked for your e-mail address so we may be seeing them again at another party!!
Thanks for all your help"
David and Becci Ness

"Just a quick message before we go away. thanks for a great night the band went down a treat, i have lost track of the amount of people that came up to me and said how great the band were (and a lot of the girls said how fit they were) and that it was the best wedding they had been to.
I hope the guys get some more bookings from our guests and some have asked for the LMM website so may leave some feedback.
Anyway thanks again and if you're ever looking for a extra singer you've got mu number!!!"
Thanks
Glen and Abbie
