What a great guy, he deserves every win he gets

[@nocturnalgriff5773]

I worked in a music venue years ago and will always remember hearing this guy, knowing he was going to be someone one day. His voice and energy was something special. Absolute congrats to him, genuine good soul too

[@BulletFever409]

Love Lucas, Such a legend!

[@robertdingley9405]

I was at SD south, Lucas was amazing and did an immense job

[@lisabyford]

Fabulous!

[@sdtfhd]

He was amaziiiiing

[@2011ewetube]

I think Lucas had that bang on. I was at the Newport show Friday and was hoping with all my heart before that it would be a good show. Before they had finished the first song it was obvious there was nothing to worry about and he absolutely smashed it more than I could have ever wished for 🖤🤘

[@elftower907]

Amazing times

[@meapantz1983]

I saw sick of it all about a week before ffaf played in corn exchange in Newport. Its a good new venue

[@ParanormalPopcorn]

Lucas as a hardcore FFAF fan.. I absolutely approved

[@paulrhyslloyd1]

They didn’t open the Corn Exchange in Newport when they played there, there had been a few gigs take place there before Funeral and there have been a few bands sell out the Corn Exchange to including Sick Of It All which I was at before Funeral played there. Got to give it to him taking over the vocal duties for a band like FFAF because they’re a very popular band and from what I’ve heard so far he’s doing a pretty good job so far. I nearly went to their warm up show but after I saw Funeral the last time in Cardiff I said that I was done seeing them play live now after seeing them I don’t know how many times but here’s wishing them the best for their future. I did see a few of his performances at slam dunk on KZbin and he seems to be doing well .

[@leestride2285]

Why is he doing vocals for FFAF? I'm out of the loop.
