In this interview spotlight, we chat with Luka Gluvic about influences, the latest release, challenges of an indie musician and much more.

Full Q&A along with links and the video for It Ain’t Right But It’s All Right below.

Where are you from and what style of music do you create? (In your own words, not necessarily in marketing terms or by popular genre classifications.)

I’m from Slovenia a country in Central Europe or Eastern Europe. It depends who is looking. I was born there but my familiy roots are from all over ex Yugoslavia (Bosnia, Serbia, Croatia).

Well, my music is more or less folk, country, singer-songwriter kind of a thing but you can find some rock sounding songs or blues.

What led you down this path of music and what motivates you to stay the cours?

The devil on the crossroads 🙂 and now I’m endlessly searching to find my soul … ? Honestly, I’ve been doing this since I remember. Writing music, prose, poems, performing, acting on stage, films and so on. It also comes from my family.

How is your new release different than previous ones? Did you set out to accomplish anything specific?

I don’t know if it’s any different. Maybe with this single I have touched different subjects that I usually write about and I wanted to recorded a song with just my vocal an guitar and with only one mic. Then when the song was recorded some ideas and pictures came in my mind and I made also a music video that is like a video poem that in a way alters or is like another level of the song and not just flashing pretty pictures that sels music. I’m not a selsman I don’t want to convince You to buy a song but to listen to it and maybe for gods sake think.

Do you face challenges as an indie musician in a digital age? How has technology helped you (assuming it helps)?

There are always challenges. The big issue still stays the same. To get your music heard. It’s easy to publish or release a song but then you get lost in the ocean of internet unless you pay a lot of money for promotion and there is tons of bullshit services that just bullshit people to make money and very little pages that really search new talents for the sake of good music not trendy crap that sales. And that is what I am all about. Good ol’ MUSIC.
