Welcome to the inaugural episode of The Struts Life!

Join me, Leah Jones, as I chat with the charismatic frontman of The Struts, Luke Spiller, about the remarkable journey of this electrifying rock band. From their humble beginnings facing mixed reception in the music industry to declining mainstream opportunities like the X Factor, Luke takes us deep into the band's resilience and creative renewal. Signed by a record label under Gary Barlow's smaller Virgin Records label and navigating through emotional turmoil, personnel changes, and the reconstruction of their lineup with Jed Elliott and Gethin Davies, The Struts' story is a testament to perseverance and passion. Luke's heartfelt recounting of early gigs, including performances at lunchtime concerts and school jazz bands, paints a vivid picture of his dedication to music.
