Hailing from Brunswick, Maine, young and emerging talent Luke Rathborne delivers music that is in the singer-songwriter folk rock tradition. With a voice that recalls John Lennon and Liam Gallagher, Rathborne has recently released his Dog Years EP (simultaneously with his I Can Be One EP), which contains the soulful title track; “Pantomime” Fear, a intimate, country-laden ballad; “Tie Your Hands Down,” which has a warm, bluesy-feel; and the rocking “Tomorrow,” whose inspiring sound kind of recalls U2. You can listen to this impressive EP on SonicCloud here.
