The roots revival of the last few years has primed listeners for a new generation of rustic, heart-on-the sleeve music—the kind that nods to tradition while setting off into uncharted territory. The Lumineers walk that line, and for the first time will be bringing their timeless melodies and soul-stirring lyrics to China.
Growing up in the New York City suburb of Ramsey, New Jersey, Wesley Schultz spent his childhood days drawing side by side with his best friend, Josh Fraites. Today, as bandleader of The Lumineers, Wesley’s replaced his pencil with a guitar, his drawings with songs, and plays side by side with Joshua’s younger brother Jeremiah. Joined later by Neyla Pekarek who softened Wes and Jer’s rough edges, The Lumineers sound took shape; an amalgam of heart-swelling stomp-and-clap acoustic rock, classic pop, and front-porch folk.
In 2011, an eponymous, self-recorded EP led to a self-booked tour, and before long The Lumineers started attracting devout fans, first across the Western US, then back in their old East Coast stomping grounds. Young, old and in-between, they’re drawn by songs like “Ho Hey” and “Stubborn Love,” Americana-inflected barnburners in the vein of the Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons. They’re drawn by songs like “Slow it Down” and “Dead Sea,” slow, sultry ballads that suggest the raw revelations of Jeff Buckley and Ryan Adams. They’re drawn by the live Lumineers experience—a coming-together in musical solidarity against isolation, adversity, and despair.

返古归真、且清新颖脱俗在当下的音乐圈可遇不可求。Lumineers就是这样一支乐队，游历于乡村民谣与摩登小清新、经典小曲与摇滚节奏之间… 2014年春，Split Works诚挚奉献：一个能让灵魂翩翩起舞的声音－The Lumineers。
2005年，当两位来自纽约的小伙Wesley Schultz和Jeremiah Fraites首次登台唱响自己的原创歌曲时，他们并不知道未来会带来怎样的惊喜，只是怀揣着对音乐的憧憬和赤诚的心意认真地追逐着梦想。时过境迁，随着大提琴手Neyla Pekarek、钢琴手Stelth Ulvang以及贝斯手Ben Wahamaki的陆续加入，如今的Lumineers已经带着他们新鲜纯朴的民谣摇滚概念逐渐走入了大众的视线。
2011年，The Lumineers 以一首“Hey Ho”大热Billboard排行榜，一度冲入前三。单曲还曾被美剧《Hart of Dixie Season》第二季采纳为主题曲。随之而发行的首张专辑《The Lumineers》也同样受到主流群体的青睐，并在Billboard 200排行榜上取得了11名的好成绩；在同年举行的第55届格莱美奖中更是受到最佳新人和最佳美国专辑两项提名。2013年Lumineers的另一首单曲“Gale Song”被收录至万众期待的好莱坞大片《饥饿游戏2:星火燎原》原声带之中，可见The Lumineers日前的火热程度。
2014年春，作为中国最大的城市音乐＋艺术节－《觉》的开场秀。Split Works 很荣幸地邀请到了这支老少皆宜、男女通吃的民谣乐队。浪漫流行如Avett Brothers 和Mumford & Sons；文艺独特如Jeff Buckley和Ryan Adams，The Lumineers无所不能，来到现场一起体验民谣前所未有的魅力吧！
