"Luke Bell was finally beginning to find a new level of equilibrium thanks to medication and treatment.... while out West recently, Luke’s mental state took a turn for the worse.

While in Tucson [August 20, 2022] with Matt Kinman, he ran off while Matt went to get something to eat.

Luke Bell was found August 29th, 2022, not far from where he disappeared, "... and in a manner we all feared he would be when we first heard the news."

...The same authenticity that made Luke Bell so appealing to fans as the rugged Wyoming cowboy turned musical troubadour is also what made the business side of making music naturally unappealing to Luke personally.

Luke Bell captured a bygone era, aura, and mood in country music that escapes even the most adept and gifted of country music artists today. They’re addled by the filter of modernity that Luke Bell was strangely immune from. He was not of this time or place, and never fit in it comfortably. That was his gift, and his burden. As troubled as he was talented, Luke Bell nonetheless left his mark.

Many had big plans for Luke, but Luke’s plans remained decidedly less aspirational.
A tour was planned for the fall of 2016 to help promote the record, but it never went off. But afterwards, Luke Bell virtually disappeared from the public eye.

Though rumors and allegations would rise to the surface about his whereabouts and state of mind, it was just as hard to pin information down about Luke Bell as it was to pin down Luke himself.

He would hop freight trains, and travel the country.
But Luke’s life wasn’t all poetry during this period.
He was hiding a severe battle with bipolar disorder that he ultimately would never shake.

Long periods would go by where nobody heard from Luke Bell.

He would end up in hospitals, or at times, incarcerated.

Over the last 1 1/2 years though, Luke Bell was finally beginning to find a new level of equilibrium thanks to medication and treatment.

Luke Bell’s cause of death is pending an autopsy."

I know I'm viewing this from a filter of knowing how things ultimately ended for him... but gosh, what sad eyes.
