Fresh out of Denver, the band are an enigmatic trio comprising of Brooklyn-to-Denver transplants Wesley Schultz, Jeremiah Fraites and Neyla Pekarek. The band’s incredible success has come through touring and word of mouth while interest from international labels was triggered after a breath-taking performance at this year’s SXSW festival and in June they signed a license deal for the album with Universal’s Decca Records.
The Lumineers have become one of the biggest success stories of the year in the US, having sold over 500,000 copies of their debut self-titled album and 1 million single downloads of their debut single ‘Ho Hey’ in less than 7 months through the independent Nashville-based label, Dualtone. ‘Ho Hey’ will be officially released in the UK on 19th November and is already at Number 10 in this week’s midweek chart.
