Luca Fogale
In this episode of Fuegostine's Music Club I (fuegostine) sit down with singer-songwriter Luca Fogale. We talk about getting better everyday, his upcoming album, and finding authenticity in social media. I hope you enjoy the episode with Luca Fogale. About Luca Fogale: Canadian singer/songwriter Luca Fogale has a clear mission with his music: to provide comfort and sanctuary, not just from the cruel world that can so often bring us down, but from the dark thoughts and messy feelings that can plague us in our most insecure moments.Raised on a steady diet of Nina Simone and Joni Mitchell, Luca possesses a voice that seems soft and gentle on the surface, but cuts deep to reveal hidden truths and suppressed emotions. Hailing from Burnaby, British Columbia, Luca recalls: “I grew up in not the most expressive family. We were conservative both in the way that we interacted with each other and the way we all bottled things up.” He’s spent his musical career making up for lost time, creating songs that aren’t afraid to be tender, vulnerable, and brutally honest.With his debut album Safety, Luca first introduced fans to a songwriter with a fine-tuned ear for warm, wool-sweater melodies, richly rendered narratives, and intimate autumnal ambiance, like Jeff Buckley timewarped into Bon Iver’s wood cabin. That album—and its gospel-gilded 2017 follow-up single “I Don’t Want to Lose You”—pegged Luca as an indie-folk phenom on the rise, but his 2020 follow-up LP, Nothing Is Lost, revealed there was a whole lot more to Luca than prettily played serenades on acoustic guitar and piano. Through a broader palette of synth-washed atmospheres, orchestral flourishes, and lush ‘70s soft-rock arrangements, Nothing is Lost saw Luca graduate from the proverbial coffeehouse to the concert hall, recasting his private conversations as cinematic set pieces.Recognition from Canada’s prestigious JUNO Awards raised Luca’s profile even further, with both Nothing Is Lost and his acclaimed 2023 follow-up album, Run Where The Light Calls, receiving nominations for “Adult Contemporary Album of the Year.” Since, he’s toured extensively across Canada, the US and Europe, and increased his total streams across the major platforms to over 100 million.Follow Me On Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fuegostine/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fuegostine YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@fuegostine Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fuegostine
