Neil Luck

Neil Luck is a musician based in the UK.

​

His work often explores the pathos and interaction between live human performance and multimedia, and attempts to frame the act of music making as something curious, or weird, or useful, or spectacular in and of itself. Neil’s work takes a range of forms from music-theatre, to concert works, radio, public projects and recordings.

Neil is the founder and director of the music-theatre ensemble ARCO, and a co-founder of artist cooperative squib-box. He performs with artist Jennifer Walshe in the duo WACK. Independently, he has also worked with and written for people and ensembles in the UK and abroad, and presented work at music venues, festivals, and galleries internationally including Tate Britain, Tate Modern,  Venice Biennale, ICA, Whitechapel Gallery, MATA Festival (NYC), BBC Proms, Palais de Tokyo (Paris), in Vilnius and Aarhus Capital of Culture festivals, and Tokyo Experimental Festival. His music has been released on several labels including Entr'acte, Nonclassical, Accidental Records, and squib-box.

From 2022-2023 Neil was a fellow at the Akademie Schloss Solitude (Stuttgart, Germany). In 2024 he will be in residence at Mahler Lewitt studios (Spoleto, Italy), and at Kinosaki Arts Centre (Japan).
