The Lumineers – The Lumineers<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The Lumineers<\/a> are an alternative-folk band founded by Wesley Schultz<\/a> and Jeremiah Fraites<\/a> in Denver, Colorado. Their first studio album, titled The Lumineers<\/a><\/em> after their band name, was released in 2012 and features popular hits like \u201cHo Hey<\/a>\u201d and \u201cStubborn Love<\/a>.\u201d The band\u2019s traditional sound, lively stage presence, and heartfelt lyrics drew in loyal fans from across genres and led to impressive feats for the group. The Lumineers were nominated for two Grammys after the release of their first album<\/a>, highlighting their potential and influence in the folk (and popular) music scene. <\/p>\n

For me, the Lumineers\u2019 music is so special because it brings up childhood nostalgia while still holding present-day significance. I first heard their classic songs on the radio and my iPod growing up, so the lyrics and melodies became ingrained in my mind even as I explored other genres and artists. The past few years, I\u2019ve fallen back in love with folk-inspired music, including the Lumineers\u2019 latest releases. Each of their albums hold true to the group\u2019s soulful and acoustic roots while exploring new themes that appeal to a wide variety of listeners. From \u201cFlowers in Your Hair<\/a>,\u201d to \u201cCleopatra<\/a>,\u201d to \u201cDonna<\/a>,\u201d to \u201cROLLERCOASTER<\/a>,\u201d the Lumineers consistently put out songs with catchy verses and simple chords, allowing their audience to easily sing and play along. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to explore folk music, The Lumineers<\/a><\/em> features tons of hits and is the perfect album to start out. It\u2019s available for checkout in the Parsons Music Library so give a listen if you\u2019re interested!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
