On this episode of The Rumors Are True, we’re joined by none other than Luke Easter, best known as the longtime frontman of pioneering Christian metal band Tourniquet, and now stepping boldly into his own as a solo artist.
Luke opens up about his time with Tourniquet—what it was like stepping into an already iconic band, helping shape its evolving sound, and carrying the torch as vocalist for over two decades. We talk about the highs, the creative process behind some of the band's most memorable records, and the eventual departure that led him down a new musical path.
Now blazing his own trail as a solo artist, Luke shares how his music has shifted, what he's learned about himself creatively, and why this next chapter might be his most personal yet. From metal to melody, grit to grace—this conversation covers it all.
Expect behind-the-scenes stories, laughs, candid moments, and thoughtful reflections from an artist who’s seen a lot, grown even more, and is still finding new ways to connect through music.
Whether you grew up on Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance or just discovered his solo work, there’s something here for you.
