After this, Luetkenhoelter and Jeffrey Gilbert (the drummer of Seven Places) joined Kutless. Both of them have been members of Kutless ever since then. In 2006, Luetkenhoelter recorded the band's fourth album with them, which is titled Hearts of the Innocent.

Luetkenhoelter can play a large number of instruments, including guitar, bass guitar, drums, piano, and the tuba.
