Interview with Luke Spiller of The Struts

[@ethansloan]

Great band. I love their album, can't wait for their second. It's kind of depressing to see them still playing in clubs and tiny theaters. I hope they get bigger, they deserve it.

[@ethansloan]

Really? That's cool. A co-headlining tour with The Darkness would be the best double bill ever. Just saying.

[@funkymonk255]

Ethan Sloan they tour with Foo Fighters and have for a while

[@tracydailey1367]

They kinda started out like Queen did in the beginning.

[@tamartin64]

Love this guy! He's a rarity these days: a by-God rockstar.

[@misaelyajurepirone4031]

The success of this band shows how missed is Freddie Mercury and Queen in today's music...

[@christiekraczek6522]

Ppl should check this band out. They feel like 70/80s old bar rock n roll. I would love to see these guys live. Very exciting hearing this bands music😁

[@emrknght2]

They are freaking sensational live-- saw them two nights ago in atlanta!

[@markyoung2348]

Zandra Rhodes did a great job on his costumes. Freddie certainly would be proud and probably flattered. It's glam and it's fabulous.

[@drumdude46]

I think we all know that we're diggin' the "Freddie Mercury" Vibe...with this guy. no gettin' around it. and i'm sure 'He Knows it, quite well. all good. lovely to have someone who sounds, resembles and moves...much like the former Queen Frontman. this is a cool band. Welcome to the States, Boys! ....

[@lianasoares8052]

He’s very handsome. He acts, looks, sings, & dresses like Freddie Mercury.

[@Bunnironi]

Get the hell here in the united states! I love you and we all love you ! WE love your type of music!!!

[@MisaloSloe]

Shut up they are british so OUR BAND

[@hellizeo]

sharing is caring, man.

[@theericsmithh]

We've got the strokes so it's even lol

[@rjc7289]

Luke is like the best of Freddie Mercury, Mick Jagger, Bon Scott, David Bowie and Elton John all rolled into one entertaining package! Keep doing what you do Luke, and keep reaching for the stars! Lord knows you and your band deserve it.

[@leighbrown5652]

Is it me or does Luke Spiller look like early 70's Freddie Mercury

[@nicomiranda7541]

Everybody thinks that, even me. I think Freddy would approve him.

[@tonlo92]

Yes, mixed with Steven Tyler, Mick Jagger & Dr Frank N Furter. Whomever he looks like, his talent is his own & I adore them.

[@pauloleonel9550]

+tonlo72 its nice to see that 70s look is again at the streets. I was tired of the Chav look.

[@jesi5000]

He looks, sounds, moves and even rolls his R's like Freddie Mercury did. It is possible that Freddie could have passed some of his genes along the way some where. ;-) Awesome band!!!!

[@christiekraczek6522]

Hell yes he does. And very natural with it. love, love them

[@barbaramcintosh4360]

The best music I’ve heard in a long time! Much success wished for The Struts! Their sound is unique and melodic! Please keep it coming! ❤

[@kleber0777]

Mick Jagger + Freddie Mercury = Luke Spiller, talentosíssimo, gravem este nome, junto com os integrantes de The Struts, farão muito sucesso, Parabéns virei, Fã!!

[@synesthesia5145]

Mt maravilhosa essa banda msm

[@BrunoSnivy.]

Foda !

[@aneliyahiddleston1416]

2:18 I just adore the way he pronounces R

[@gatorguyblue]

I saw these guys open for Foo Fighters last night here in Fresno, Ca.......they were great! bringing fun back to rock n roll....Luke Spiller is definitely a cross between Freddie and Mick

[@tamaraadams7403]

I was there last night and I wasn’t sure what to expect of the The Struts but I loved them!

[@ifukill7538]

I love you. Freddie was the best. Cried so much when he died. Love you struts.

[@ChammiePhillips]

Been in love with this man since I first heard him several years ago. Freddy lives on!

[@runthejudes]

ChammiePhillips Freddie

[@tracydailey1367]

He even has the teeth thing like Freddie..

[@victoriarose9358]

I was here at this concert! Born and raised in Johnson City! So angry I didn't get to meet them!! I will soon! Johnson City loved you!!!!! Come back!!

[@michaeltreadway5420]

DAMMITT VICTORIA ROSE. DID YOU GRT SOME PICS? PLEASE TELL ME YA DID I NEED SOME

[@michaeltreadway5420]

VICTORIA. YOU BEST GET AHOLD OF ME IF EVER YA HEAR ABOUT THEM ANYWHERE NEAR MY HOMETOWN JOHNSON CITY TN.. LOVE YA & THE STRUTS

[@kerrysullivan1005]

saw them with FOO Fighters- they are AMAZING- the future is now....

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Kerry Sullivan i was just going to suggest that that would be a GREAT double-bill.....with the Foo Fighters. Bet that was a good concert!

[@babymoondancer]

I keep expecting him to say "darling".

[@samtracy8072]

Saw them live at a music festival and they are actually awesome. Totally a fan now haha :P

[@stevetrent4275]

don't care WHO he looks like or sounds like... Superior to FM....LOVE that voice..

[@cincol3r]

The Struts need to get a gig at Ottawa's Bluesfest. They are awesome.

[@candicewright9359]

Lucas...more EYELINER 💄💄💄💄

[@jash6244]

I CAN SEE LUKE SPILLER AS A PERFECT SINGER FOR A NEW AGE QUEEN👑💂👑💂‍♀️👑💂‍♂️👑💂‍♂️

[@gillisdanos9354]

The Struts didn't just upload music to different sites The got their success the old fashion way They worked for it and earned it.

[@stars.are.blind_955]

You go Luke, the band is awesomeee! greetings from Peru

[@danh7739]

God he's bone tired. You see it and feel it in his voice.

[@parkviewmo]

I really like this band and I think they are great! I plan to go see the asap!

[@donnadottoli5744]

You rock. Thank you

[@YourTransmissionRepair]

I'm 64 and this is the hardest working band I've ever seen. Oh, did I mention they're great?

[@andrewfield827]

I came across you guys when loading up my Spotify and I typo'd the strokes and it opened up a world of great music and Luke Spiller is a brilliant showman, I have just missed your UK tour but can't wait for the next 1. Keep rocking guys

[@embrabewitcher]

I want him to say "DARLING" 😍

[@TheRicokilla]

I enjoyed listening him speak. And that toilet bowl at the end. Gosh What were they thinking???

[@tamaraadams7403]

I saw them last night in Fresno opening for The Foo Fighters. I wasn’t sure what to expect because I had never heard of them before but I loved them! Luke was so high energy with a fabulous voice and got everyone pumped for Foo.

[@shieldedforever4619]

Its a shame they've had trouble in their native country (the same as my own). No wonder I haven't heard of them until now. They are better than the other British dross at the moment, the two choices being some third rate dancey hip hoppy crap or some clone of Ed Sheran singing some equally cloned Ed Sheran song. The Struts should be mopping the floor with these guys.

[@susansargent8513]

It seems to be a thing every band I've ever heard fromengkand had trouble being accepted. Way back to the eighties they were heavily criticized.

[@theenglishalpinist5031]

Fucking yes.

[@glamstersarah]

This is such a late reply but I feel this! I'm British too and I think they're one of the most innovative and interesting music acts we've produced in years. Why doesn't the UK understand that??

[@TheRicokilla]

30 years ago, this band would have been considered a legend. It's true what Luke said, the music today that's played in mainstream media is a result of intensive research instead of taking a chance by putting something out there and see the outcome of it. Just hear the music that's being played these days, they mostly sound flat or dead. The joy that was once in music has Long gone.

[@christopherchuauhang4829]

And now you're signed to Interscope. Good job lads.

[@ShadowOfADoubt9]

lol he wiped his sweat on the guy in the front row.

[@teighan2051]

lucky guy

[@deciathomas-waite6923]

Love The Struts!!

[@meeegashie]

I say...let's take a chance on the struts

[@tracydailey1367]

He is JUST too Dammm Beautiful!!!😍😍😘😘😘

[@ejshafer]

just saw these guys open for the Foo fighters at Fenway it was a great set

[@BookFreakyTube]

Luck is absolutely right. Today's alternative music is just an alternative.

[@jhonnycultura4455]

BookFreakyTube where does it says that?

[@MamaBoots007]

A combination of Rod, Freddie, Mick and Marc with a touch of Joan Jett.

[@kensei010]

much love ❤️ to you, stay healthy the struts!

[@lianasoares8052]

I like his bohemian outfits in this. 👌🏻

[@brendapowell407]

Still number one fan no matter love them so much

[@Sreybk]

Hello, I am Rory MciLroy..this is my night gig.

[@cynthiaearls7392]

Just love Luke Spiller 💞💞💋

[@thewarriorcat1593]

Comment your favorite Struts song 🤍

[@victoriarose9358]

Luke call me!!

[@louisetokar3493]

Why the thumbs down?

[@dogmanky]

Opening for the Foo Fighters! Go Struts!

[@runthejudes]

Good lord I wanna kiss him

[@campbellking4590]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I love you guys!!!!!

[@manro8]

Dad rock

[@MewWolf5]

I was not prepared for the revelation that he had been sitting next to a toilet the entire time!

[@wolfhaley6900]

Same 😂😂😂

[@michaelparker5510]

Should be playing stadiums

[@ariavinson9281]

No, no it is not you, he really does. Spot on

[@TheGoosita]

They just have the IT

[@edwardbliss8931]

In his recent interview with Eddie Trunk, Luke Spiller said he's a big fan of Air Supply. There goes that rock credibility out the window. Even the rock gods of the 70s wouldn't openly admit to liking ABBA or the Bay City Rollers

[@wolfhaley6900]

That’s a shame. Rock stars can like ABBA and all those other groups you mentioned, music is music. They shouldn’t lose credibility because they a bit of disco or whatever.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Your problem in England seems to follow the pattern of so many great British bands all the way back to the sixties. They all came over to The States and formed the great British Invasion and “made it” here. It’s amazing to think that a band of the stature of Zeppelin was still being called an “American band” by dimwits in the British press even in 1979 after a decade on the world stage.

[@emanuelegiampalmo6654]

LUKE. VALENTIN. THE. STRUTS

[@turonxcheese2979]

Okay, new band to ship ❤❤❤

[@wolfhaley6900]

😐📸

[@conniekreese7165]

Someone put some serious blender of rockstar dna into a blender ..result is awesome

[@kassiehernandez9797]

How old are you

[@luisalberto3836]

good, caballeros del zodiaco

[@yencasablancas3920]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@kiritocube2900]

El fredie mercuri de este tiempo

[@lianasoares8052]

Why did they not add a door or some form of privacy for the area of the toilet? Like come on, people...

[@dave1uofm]

These guys are so talented just started listening Great stuff just don't know where they fit in pop or rock. I think that is the problem they have cause the music is great.

[@nocturnallsnake4228]

anybody said Strokes?

[@misa80209]

Nocturnal Snake no

[@camilaferrario4758]

Este Luke es de terror es atorrante

[@meeegashie]

extraordinaire??...............

[@milin7120]

Why he trying to be like Freddie tho wtf 🫤🫤😐😐

[@TheFranzinee]

IMO.....add another guitarist and get edgier. ( Watch Early UFO ).

[@rickytarner3135]

Is Luke aka queen spiller GAY I hope

[@barrysmith5830]

a poor man's Freddie Mercury

[@Pinerocks]

Please never cut your hair!!

[@Fife-bv4dv]

Totally derivative. Ridiculous 1970s glam rip-off. Sad.

[@jrberry63]

Some say rip-off, others say brilliant revival, and long overdue.

[@jwobbe1986]

rubbish

[@nocturnallsnake4228]

anybody said Strokes?

[@misa80209]

Nocturnal Snake oui

[@nocturnallsnake4228]

[@misa80209]
