With just four singers remaining, things are getting serious on Australian Idol. One contestant who’s rising to the challenge is Luke Dickens. It’s an amazing thing when you realize that mere months ago, Luke was a humble shearer.
With no formal singing training, Luke’s won over the judges and the Australian public with his raspy rock voice and down-to-earth attitude.
Instant fame isn’t the only new thing to come into Luke’s life. He’s also just become a father for the first time. With his newborn son in mind, Luke took on Creed’s “With Arms Wide Open” this week.
The sincerity Luke injected into this song made it a superstar performance. His lack of professional experience gives his performances an honesty that is so endearing. Everyone loves an Aussie battler, and Luke definitely fits the bill.
