Jeremiah Fraites, co‑founder of The Lumineers, steps into a striking new creative realm with the original score for the upcoming biopic Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere. The film—which delves into the emotionally charged making of Bruce Springsteen’s iconic Nebraska album—debuted at the Telluride Film Festival and arrives in theaters on October 24, 2025.
Fraites describes this project as both “a career high and personal privilege,” reflecting a deep emotional resonance rather than a musical mimicry of Springsteen’s style. Emphasizing restraint, raw honesty, and space—mirroring the stark acoustic tone of Nebraska—he crafted a score that complements the film’s introspective atmosphere without overshadowing it.
Already having debuted as a film composer with The Long Walk earlier this fall, Fraites is quickly emerging as a promising voice in cinematic scoring.
His work on this biographical drama amplifies the emotional gravity of Springsteen’s journey—from the solitude of suburban New Jersey to forging one of music’s most influential albums. This score marks a compelling intersection of indie folk sensibility and cinematic storytelling.
