Steve "Luke" Lukather (born October 21, 1957) is an American Grammy Award winning guitarist, singer, songwriter, arranger, and record producer best known for his work with the rock band Toto. Lukather has also released several solo albums and, as a studio session guitarist, has arranged, composed, and recorded on over 1000 albums. Lukather was recently voted #1 guitarist worldwide in over 40 countries at VoteNumber1.com. While his work with Toto is predominantly based on pop rock music, Lukather's solo work spans many genres including rock, prog, jazz and funk.

Notable session keyboardist David Paich and session drummer Jeff Porcaro were high school friends with Lukather. They asked Lukather to join in forming their band, Toto, in 1976 when Lukather was nineteen years old. He has been a member of Toto ever since. Lukather's talent at guitar playing and his association with Paich and Porcaro, already established session musicians, allowed him to obtain a great deal of session work in the 1970s and 1980s. He is a prolific songwriter, writing or co-writing many songs for Toto and other artists. His career to present has seen hundreds of performances and album appearances with Toto and other famous musicians. Lukather has been nominated for a Grammy twelve times, and has won five awards.

Looking forward to seeing Luke and his band play on the 19th of this month in Wolverhampton, England. This will be the third time I have seen him play there.

"All's Well That Ends Well" is one of my absolute favourite albums right now. Great album!

Anybody know where I can buy Brett Raymonds album "Only Love"?

Steve Lukather is on some of the songs and his solo is absolutely amazing.
For example, listen to this:

Someone who knows if Luke has changed his setlist comparing to the gigs he did back in 2008?
Comment by Lukather5150 on July 21, 2009 at 11:49pm
My favorite guitarist of all time..
Comment by Brian Hassan on July 18, 2009 at 10:06pm
Luke rules, was fortunate enough to see him live earlier this year. Have been a huge fan since the early 80's and the reason I picked up the guitar myself and learnt all his solos note for note. A great player who has it all, a very tasteful player who plays the right part for the song, no wonder he was a top session player.

One of the best guitarists ever. It is ironic that he was so tight with the late Jeff Porcaro, one of the best drummers ever to hit a Remo. Watching Luke play is like being transported to another world - it all comes so naturally to him!
