The band’s first-ever live album is heralded by “Gale Song” featuring James Bay
The Lumineers has announced its first-ever live album, Live From Wrigley Field, which will be available digitally and as a 3 LP vinyl set via Dualtone in the US and Canada, and Decca for the rest of the world, on Friday, September 27th.
The album was recorded on September 3, 2022, at Chicago’s historic Wrigley Field during the final night of the two-time Grammy Award-nominated band’s critically acclaimed Brightside World Tour. The project is heralded by the premiere of “Gale Song” featuring James Bay, an electrifying rendition of the fan-favorite track from their 2016 RIAA platinum-certified, worldwide No. 1 album Cleopatra.
The Lumineers are known for their soaring and energetic live performances, with sold-out shows in arenas, amphitheaters, and stadiums worldwide. Live From Wrigley Field sees the band lighting up over the 41,000 lucky fans in attendance with an anthemic, foot-stomping journey through 25 greatest hits, chart-topping career favorites, and more. Among the set’s innumerable highlights are joyful takes on classic hits like “Ho Hey,” “Stubborn Love,” “Gloria,” “Brightside,” and the RIAA four-time platinum-certified “Ophelia,” along with such beloved tracks as “Submarines,” “Sleep On The Floor,” “A.M. Radio,” and more.
The album documents a landmark moment in The Lumineers’ career, showcasing their sophisticated songcraft, exceptional musicianship, and the deep sense of community they share with the fans that have affirmed them among the most popular and successful touring acts of their generation.
“Gale song has become a fan-favorite in a way we didn’t see coming,” says The Lumineers’ co-founder Wesley Shultz. “It was beautiful to hear it in a new way with James Bay live during this show and much of our US tour.”
In addition to extensive touring and the new live album, the band also recently collaborated with James Bay and Noah Kahan on Bay’s new single, “Up All Night.”
