Since their breakout 2012 self-titled debut album, the Lumineers have
achieved some incredible milestones: twenty-four number one hits, billions of streams, packed global arena tours, multi-platinum releases, Grammy
nominations, and, most important to core members Jeremiah Fraites and
Wesley Schultz, numerous beloved, timeless songs
The band's fifth studio album 'Automatic', is being released in a music landscape that has become dominated by solo artists dependent on other writers. Schultz says being one of the few groups touring who write all their own material, is "a unique badge of honor." But that's not to say they won't collaborate with other artists; Schultz and Fraites have recently written and appeared on songs with pop icon P!nk, as well as rising singer-songwriters James Bay and Zach Bryan.

STAFF COMMENTS
Barry says: Grand orchestral indie music with a hint of folky melodicism and plenty of earworm choruses, The Lumineers fifth studio album is as nuanced and majestic as they've ever been.TRACK LISTING
