Description
In the same vein as the Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons, the Lumineers create roots-inflected indie music that blends a lyrical and melodic maturity and heartland style. Formed in the suburbs of New York City, the band got its start when Jeremiah Fraites started playing music with Wesley Schultz as a way for the two to deal with their grief over the death of their brother and friend Josh Fraites. After relocating to Denver, the two enlisted the talents of classically trained multi-instrumentalist Neyla Pekarek, and the band recorded its self-titled debut, a timeless reminder that sometimes sorrow gives birth to beautiful things.
