Editor's note

The Lumineers and their folk-pop storytelling

A Denver band that turned a simple chorus into a lasting connection.

If you want to hear what they do best, start with "Ho Hey" and "Sleep On The Floor." That's the band in two moods.

The Lumineers matter because they made folk feel immediate again. "Ho Hey" wasn't just a hit, it was a sing-along that stuck around. Songs like "Sleep On The Floor" and "Stubborn Love" kept that direct emotional pull even as their arrangements grew more atmospheric.

They started playing together in Denver around 2010. After "Ho Hey" broke through in 2012, they released albums like "Cleopatra" and "III," adding bassist Byron Isaacs in 2018. They put out "Brightside" in 2022.

Archive material and source history

The Lumineers formed in Denver around 2010 when Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites started playing together. Their debut single "Ho Hey" came out in 2012 and became a mainstream hit, leading to a self-titled album that went platinum. The song's simple chorus and folk instrumentation connected with listeners in a way that felt both immediate and lasting.

After that initial success, they released albums like "Cleopatra" in 2016 and "III" in 2019. These records showed the band expanding their sound a bit, working with more atmospheric arrangements while keeping the storytelling at the center. Songs like "Stubborn Love" and "Sleep On The Floor" maintained that balance of direct emotion and careful craft.

A former member named Stelth Ulvang filed a lawsuit against the band in 2016 over royalty disputes, which was settled out of court. The group continued recording and touring, adding bassist Byron Isaacs in 2018. They put out another album called "Brightside" in 2022.
