Luke Redfield is a singer-songwriter who hails from Minneapolis, MN. His sound is best described as indie folk, with tinges of alt-country and free-spirited rock and roll. His debut full-length, "Ephemeral Eon" is an introspective and literate ode to life as a lonesome traveler on America's great mythical highway. It is receiving airplay and rave reviews around the world, garnering comparisons to M Ward, Townes Van Zandt, and Iron and Wine.



In the past few years, Redfield has performed 500+ shows across the northern hemisphere, including tours of Europe, Alaska, and the lower 48. He has collaborated and shared the stage with members of (Bob Marley &) The Wailers, Happy Apple, Sound Team, Gayngs, and Andrew Bird's band; as well as Ke$ha, The Tiny, Nick Harper, Chris Koza, The Pines, Haley Bonar, Gregory Alan Isakov, and late, great Eyedea.
A wonderful new release and U.S. tour await Redfield and his fans in 2011.

?VolumeOne (Eau Claire, WI)
"(Redfield) not only follows in the footsteps of Dylan and Van Zandt, he is ofttimes right there alongside them."
?AltCountry.NL (Netherlands)
"This is the kind of music I'd expect Conor Oberst to write if he could ever get his head out of the bottle ? comfortable in its limits, but what limits?"
?Colorado Music Board (Boulder, CO)
"Redfield's nomadic ways make for a memorable debut.drawing heavily on his experiences over the last five years living all across the States ? and busking across Europe ? Redfield's songs are indelibly stamped by the drifter lifestyle."
