The Lumineers announce North American tour
Two time GRAMMY nominated artist, The Lumineers, announced last night during their performance on Jimmy Kimmel that they’ll be embarking on their first ever North American arena tour in 2017. This news comes just days after the act performed at the esteemed Americana Music Awards, and on the coattails of a current sold-out North American leg of the Cleopatra World Tour, that included shows at famed venues such as Hollywood Bowl, two nights at Greek Theater in Berkeley, two night at Red Rocks in Denver, and two nights at the Ascend Amphitheatre in Nashville. The Cleopatra World Tour includes Canadian stops Montreal, Quebec City, Ottawa, London, Winnipeg, Saskatoon, and Edmonton. See below for a full routing.
Icelandic band, Kaleo with #1 hit “Way Down We Go” will join The Lumineers as direct support in Canada, in addition to opener Susto. The Lumineers will also perform at the White House October 3 as part of President Obama’s SXSLawn festival. For more information please visit www.TheLumineers.com
The Lumineers’ sophomore album Cleopatra has hit No. 1 on the Top 200 Soundscan Chart (Canada), the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart (U.S.) as well as the Official Albums Chart Top 100 (UK). Cleopatra is the first No. 1 album from indie powerhouse Dine Alone Records and Dualtone Music (an Entertainment One Company) this year. “Ophelia” went #1 on Alternative radio in Canada and the new single “Cleopatra” is steadily climbing the charts, already in the Top 15. Cleopatra is available to purchase via Dine Alone’s website here and iTunes here.
It took four years for The Lumineers (Wesley Schultz, Jeremiah Fraites and Neyla Pekarek) to follow up their platinum-plus, multi-Grammy-nominated, self-titled debut – which spent 46 weeks on the Billboard 200 peaking at #2 – but Cleopatra is well worth the wait. The band – founded by its core members in Ramsey, New Jersey back in 2002 – exploded onto the scene with their monster single, “Ho Hey” (which spent a staggering 62 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #3) and its follow-up, “Stubborn Love”. Their debut LP is also certified Triple Platinum in Canada and the ubiquitous single “Ho Hey”, which hit #1 in Canada on all major radio formats, is 7X Platinum, and the single “Stubborn Love” which also reached #1 in Canada is also certified Platinum.
