\u00a0The Oscar-buzzy Bruce Springsteen biopic \u201cDeliver Me from Nowhere,\u201d which will be released Oct. 24, had its\u00a0world premiere screening Friday at the Telluride Film Festival, and it already has people talking about … Nathaniel Rateliff \u2013 who\u00a0 has no connection to the film,\u00a0which focuses on Springsteen’s moody 1982 album \u201cNebraska.\u201d<\/p>\n

But now that \u201cDeliver Me from Nowhere\u201d has been seen by a precious few, comparisons of star Jeremy Allan White to rock royalty have begun. To Springsteen, of course \u2013\u00a0White is said to be so convincing as Bruuuuce<\/em> that he sang all of The Boss\u2019 songs himself for the film \u2013\u00a0but also to our own very own Rateliff.<\/p>\n

The film\u2019s early chatter is suggesting that White’s portrayal of a salt-of-the-earth character in the film mirrors the very same “Boss” vibe that Rateliff often channels in his own music.<\/p>\n

Rateliff\u2019s music has been popping up all over movies, including \u201cDeadpool 2,\u201d \u201cPalmer\u201d and the new Julia Stiles film \u201cWish You Were Here.\u201d<\/a> His voice also made an appearance in Denver filmmaker Taylor McFadden<\/a>\u2019s \u201dLovers\u201d (she’s his beloved).\u00a0<\/p>\n

There was a little mini-eruption on social media over the weekend when an uncaptioned pic starting going around that appeared to show Rateliff meeting White, presumably at Telluride. Which was funny because it was actually a photo of Rateliff greeting actor James Lance, the actor who played journalist Trent Crimm on “Ted Lasso.” It was taken last month at the famed Newport Folk Festival, which in 2024\u00a0appointed Rateliff as the inaugural steward of its new Stewardship Program. He’s tasked with\u00a0identifying individuals who enrich and support the festival\u2019s legacy through meaningful initiatives. It’s a prestigious, three-year appointment.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cI view this as a valuable opportunity to learn from the talented performers who return each year, as well as from the dedicated fans and individuals who help shape the festival into what it has become today,” Rateliff said at the time.<\/p>\n

All of which is to say: Bruce + Jeremy does not = Nathaniel.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Still, Colorado does have an actual artistic connection to \u201cDeliver Me from Nowhere\u201d \u2013\u00a0and a pretty big one at that. The emotional original score has been composed by Jeremiah Fraites, the quiet, suspenders-wearing member of The Lumineers<\/a> who plays drums and leaves most of the fronting to his band brother, Wesley Schultz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fraites spoke to Billboard Magazine about the gig<\/a>, calling the experience “a career high and personal privilege.\u201d He went on to say he was \u201cbeyond grateful for this opportunity to write the original score for this gorgeous film.\u201d<\/p>\n

The assignment holds special meaning for Fraites, who moved to Colorado from the East Coast 20 years ago. Springsteen recorded Nebraska\u201d on a 4-track recorder in his New Jersey bedroom.<\/p>\n

\u201cI grew up in New Jersey, so Bruce Springsteen\u2019s music was always a part of my landscape, whether learning how to drive to eating at 24-hour diners, his music was always with me,\u201d Fraites told Billboard. \u201cWhat (director Scott Cooper) has done with this film is rare \u2014 he\u2019s captured the quiet fragility and unfiltered honesty of Bruce\u2019s life during the making of \u2018Nebraska.\u2019 It was an honor to support his vision.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fraites told Billboard that choosing the music for the film was more about feeling than style.<\/p>\n

\u201cI chose to ground the score with an upright piano I playfully call \u2018Firewood\u2019 \u2014 a beat-up instrument so devalued it was once considered fit only to burn,\u201d he told the magazine. \u201cThat imperfection felt right for Bruce\u2019s story: raw, unvarnished and rooted in resilience. Its rough edges and warm tone captured a sense of grit and authenticity that a pristine concert piano simply couldn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fraites also scored Stephen King\u2019s \u201cThe Long Walk,\u201d opening Sept. 12. The Lumineers\u2019 ongoing \u201cAutomatic\u201d tour, which drew 53,000 to Mile High Stadium<\/a> last month, continues through October.<\/p>\n
