The Lumineers are a contemporary American folk rock band known for their emotionally raw lyricism and soul-stirring melodies that have struck a chord with a global audience. Formed in 2005 by the founding members Wesley Schultz (lead vocals, guitar) and Jeremiah Fraites (drums, percussion, piano), the group solidified its lineup when cellist and vocalist Neyla Pekarek joined in 2010, contributing to their breakthrough self-titled debut album in 2012. The Lumineers gained substantial popularity with their mesmerizing hit "Ho Hey," which together with other songs from their debut, propelled them into the spotlight.

The Denver, Colorado-based band maintains a rustic charm that resonates throughout their discography, with subsequent albums such as "Cleopatra" (2016) and "III" (2019) showcasing their storytelling prowess and the depth of their songwriting. Their most recent album "BRIGHTSIDE" was released in 2022 and exhibits the band's progression and experimentation with their sound, while still remaining true to their acoustic roots. With a string of new releases including tracks like "BRIGHTSIDE," "CRIMES," and "LOSS," as well as "where we are (acoustic)" showcasing their stripped-down appeal, The Lumineers continue to redefine the boundaries of folk-rock, enchanting their listeners with hauntingly beautiful narratives and an undeniably authentic musical experience.
