Born in Ketchikan, Alaska and raised along the coast of British Columbia, he has devoted his life to his music and has evolved into a multi-disciplinary creator with a distinctive brand of alternative music. Since the release of his 2017 breakthrough EP ‘Reverberate,’ he has been quietly building his discography and amassing a devoted fanbase. Now, after honing his craft for years, he is creating some of the most impassioned work of his career.

By infusing faith with his unique signature style of music, the award-winning Canadian/American songwriter, producer, and filmmaker seamlessly flows from nostalgic pop covers to ambitiously soulful original songs. Although he has been described as a “worship artist,” he has grown into a multi-faceted storyteller, creating intimate portraits of life, loss, and love. While his songs are often inspired by his own life, he aims to transform his deeply personal experiences into universal messages.

The Arctic has been acclaimed and appreciated by fans and critics alike. He won a 2021 Leo Award and earned GMA Award nominations in 2016 and 2018. He has performed extensively in both sharing the stage and collaborating with artists including Brian Doerksen, Carolyn Arends, Chelsea Amber, Marika Siewert, Ryan McAllister, Coalmont (now known as The Restless Willing), and many others. Luke continues to explore new territory with each release, revealing himself to be an artist of rare authenticity and honesty. Whether in music or film, The Arctic’s honest exploration of truth provides a haven where people feel comforted and peaceful.
