Luke Sneyd is a Toronto singer-songwriter. His debut solo album All of Us Cities was released online in July, 2007. Luke's debut features smart, high energy power pop. Working with producer Marc Koecher, the two musicians first combined forces when Marc composed a soundtrack for Where the Wild Things Go, a short film Luke wrote and produced. That cinematic sensibility carried over into their collaboration on the album. A mutual perfectionism society, they toiled and tinkered over the record for two years in Marc's basement studio. Chris Osti (Hugh Dillon Redemption Choir, The Action Mob) played bass on "The Prisoner", "Starstruck" and "Dallas", Luke laying down all the guitars and vocals, and Marc adding keys, bass, drums and textures. The finished album All of Us Cities is a bright, polished alt-pop gem. An early demo of "The Prisoner" was a finalist in the 2006/07 Unisong International Songwriting Contest. Both "Waiting" and "Unknown" were selected as Garageband.com Tracks of the Day in June 2007, and "Waiting" was included on No Cover Magazine's Groupies Suck Vol. 10 Compilation. The album has only just begun to get notice, but No Cover calls Luke an “amazing unsigned artist”. On just their second show, he and his band won out over 500 bands for a spot in the Great Canadian Band Challenge, challenging against five other bands for $25,000 and a deal with Universal. Luke was an original member of the defunct electro-rock combo Mountain Mama. The band released one EP, Grand Theft Audio, and twice played Canadian Music Week. Luke's now forming his own artist label Mannequin Phono and playing shows with the full band.
