New Release from The Lumineers 'Ophelia' On Universal Music New Zealand

Platinum-selling Denver trio, The Lumineers, today announce their long-awaited return with news of their second album Cleopatra – the follow up to their multi-Grammy-nominated, self-titled debut.

The band also reveal their compelling first single, ‘Ophelia', instantly recognisable as The Lumineers with its syncopated piano rolls and sing along chorus.

After exploding onto the scene with their monster single, the irrepressible 'Ho Hey', and its follow-up, 'Stubborn Love' (recently featured on President Barack Obama’s Spotify playlist), The Lumineers spent a solid three years touring six of the seven continents. During that time, the band earned a pair of Grammy nominations (Best New Artist, Best Americana Album), contributed two songs to The Hunger Games franchise (including the hit Jennifer Lawrence/James Newton Howard collaboration, 'The Hanging Tree') and sold an impressive 3 million albums worldwide.

Cleopatra will be released April 8th, 2016.
