Biography

British musician, immensely popular to screaming fans in 1987. Their band with original material, consisting of Luke, his older twin brother Matt and Craig Logan (b.1969) was named "Bros." For two years, they were England's hottest group and teenage heartthrobs, scoring eight consecutive Top Ten hits, including the chart-topping "I Owe You Nothing." Their debut album, "Push" sold 300,00 copies within its first week of release and in excess of five million worldwide. During their first year, they completed a World Tour of a dozen countries, of which the video was released in 1988. Over their peak-six years, Bros recorded three successful albums, including thirteen Top-5 singles and selling 17 million records worldwide. At that time their World Tour video outsold Michael Jackson/s Thriller with over 250,000 copies sold. Logan left the group a duo in January 1989 and they continued as a duo in spite of management problems and teeny-bopper’s fickle tastes but nothing matched that first fantastic two years.

The twins went on as singles, Luke into acting and Matt singing. Luke took the lead theatrical role in the musical, "Plan 9 From Outer Space." In February 1997, he starred in the musical "What a Feeling" which toured the UK. He followed that with "Grease," playing the starring role as Danny in the West End production. They took the show on the road successfully for two years. He has also played on MTV, recorded for the BBC and appeared in ads for Hyundai Cars.

On his 30th birthday, Luke appeared as the (almost) nude centerfold for Cosmopolitan magazine.
