Biography

Son of country legend Willie Nelson and his fourth wife Annie D'Angelo, Lukas Autry Nelson was born in Austin, Texas, on December 25, 1988. He grew up between Austin and Hawaii, where he skateboarded and surfed, before following in his father's musical footsteps. He began composing at the age of eleven and contributed to his father's album, It Always Will Be (2004), before moving to Los Angeles, where he formed his own band, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, in 2008. After three independent albums, the band gained notoriety through its three collaborations with Neil Young, then by signing with the Fantasy label, for which it recorded a homonymous album followed by Turn Off the News (Build a Garden) (2019), then three other albums before Lukas Nelson's solo career. Contacted by Bradley Cooper to star in the film A Star Is Born, Nelson writes eight songs for the soundtrack and wins a BAFTA Award and a Grammy Award. In June 2024, he put Promise of the Real on hold to devote himself to recording his first personal album American Romance (2025), produced by Shooter Jennings and featuring contributions from Sierra Ferrell and Stephen Wilson Jr.
