Welcome to this week’s The Struts Life—and oh, what a treat we have for you! Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on something fans have whispered about for years: Luke Spiller’s secret musical. Yes, it’s real, it’s magical, and it’s every bit as brilliant as you’d hope. The story begins in the Victorian-esque town of "Clevedonahue," inspired by Luke’s own childhood in Clevedon, and follows James Walker, an orphan whose inheritance sets him on a fantastical, rock-infused adventure. Luke spills all the tea about crafting this world, from writing songs in a tiny garden outhouse to recording quirky sound effects with his family and cat.

It’s part radio drama, part musical theater, and all Luke’s unique vision.

Plus, we share an exclusive song from the project and chat about his upcoming solo shows and Struts releases.

Trust me, Strutters, you don’t want to miss this one—it’s the stuff of legends!
