Luke Kelly (Dublin, 17 november 1940 – aldaar, 30 januari 1984) was een Ierse zanger en musicus die vooral bekend werd als lid van The Dubliners. Over zijn geboortemaand bestaat enige twijfel, want zijn geboortebewijs vermeldt december terwijl zijn moeder zegt dat het november was. Voor Luke zelf was er geen twijfel mogelijk. Hierover zei hij: "I have always taken my mother's word for it, for the reason that she was there at the time". Lees meer op Wikipedia
