Luke Rathborne

Luke Rathborne announces today a new release, the Brooklyn-by-way-of-Maine singer/songwriter who since moving to New York has garnered an impressive following through the release of "Soft". Today, Rathborne has a new song to share – “Depending” a hushed atmospheric acoustic ballad recorded with co-producer Yale Yng-Wong the Winter which follows the trials of love found and lost.

Rathborne had been making music since his early teens - playing in high school punk bands, and sneaking into the local college radio station at night to record his own music. By age 18, his hunger for a larger scene to immerse himself in was palpable.

After moving to New York, Rathborne started his own small label True Believer in order to self-release tracks (independently garnering over 9 million streams on Spotify), and booking his own shows across the city. Early attention from press came – Noisey, Vogue, Nylon, Interview Magazine, and Billboard have all written about him, with SPIN describing the most recent release as “channeling the garage-rock sludge of Ty Segall and resurrecting the melodic charms of R.E.M.”
