Rory was the featured artist in Jazzwise's "Taking Off" in 2019, and interviewed on BBC Radio 3 discussing his other project, Parliamentary Jazz Award nominated 'Bonsai' who released a new record in 2019 on Ubuntu Music, receiving much critical acclaim.

He has, since graduating from Royal Academy of Music, begun to firmly establish himself on the London jazz scene as "a highly-charged, creative and swinging drummer" (Gareth Lockrane) with world-renowned jazz vibraphonist Joe Locke describing him as "an excellent drummer… it was a lot of fun playing with him".

Luke currently plays regularly with jazz artists such as Claire Martin OBE, Emma Smith (Jazz Now – BBC Radio 3), Ray Gelato (Sir ‪Paul McCartney‬, ‪Robbie Williams‬ and HM The Queen) and Claire Teal (BBC Radio 2).
