Episode 157: Lukas
Ladies and gentlemen...It's Lukas!
The brain child behind Sentimental Creatures was kind enough to make the hour-long commute to the B.R.P. studio amidst winter conditions last month, and I was grateful he did, as we talked growing up, God, earning first-gig cap feathers, and a ton more.
Lukas and his outfit can be found on Instagram, Facebook, Soundcloud, plus all streaming services.
Learning about all that has transpired in a short time for both Lukas and Sentimental Creatures was exciting, as was our conversation about a few of his favorite records, which were these:
Prince's self-titled, (1979)
Hysteria (1987), Def Leppard
Jeff Buckley's Grace (1994)
self-titled (2013), The 1975
Fun chat with good people.
While we were talking, we both reminisced about our respective third-grade teachers. And even though the particular memory I shared about mine wasn't anything profound, it did jostle fond memories of my time in Sarah Sangster's Annistown Elementary classroom in Snellville, GA.
Miss Sangster had great energy and the real "it" required for getting kids' attention and keeping it. She was always bright, cheery, witty, caring, and juggled savvy with empathy like no other I'd had (or would have). I've Googled former teachers before, and this one had me quasi-curious as to whether she was still at it, or even around; I was saddened to learn that she had passed a couple of years ago. She married in 2000, and became Mrs. Davenport, which made me happy for her. Shouts out, though, to Miss Sangster. May you rest in peace.
Anyway...please consider giving Sentimental Creatures an IG follow, so you can stay in the loop with upcoming gigs and release updates. Thank you for supporting the show.
