Luke Dick

Songwriter Soup

Luke Dick joins Laura and Tracy for a candid and sprawling look at money, songwriting, creativity and family. Luke’s winding path has led him through academics, warehouse jobs, an artist deal, songwriting, producing, and movie-making. Ultimately he’s emerged as one of the most unique and sought-after songwriter/producers in Nashville. His approach to money puts creativity front and center. His humor and vulnerability make him one of the most engaging guests on the show so far.

Luke Dick was raised in a topless bar and grew up to be a philosophy professor; now he's a songwriter, filmmaker, producer, and new wave bandleader, in no particular order. He has been profiled in Rolling Stone and written chart-topping and award-winning hits such as Miranda Lambert's "Bluebird”, Dierks Bentley’s “Burning Man”, and Eric Church’s “Kill A Word”, among many others. He also spent some time in NYC writing jingles for HBO’s Boardwalk Empire and Hilton hotels. He now lives in Nashville with his two kids, and recently sent another off to college. He enjoys long walks from his backdoor to his garage and has an extensive record and beef jerky collection.
