The Lumineers to return to India after four years; to perform in Delhi-NCR in February 2026
The tour supports their fifth studio album Automatic, a record that defines band's hallmark style of turning personal, heartfelt storytelling into sweeping, crowd-rousing performances. Known for blurring the lines between intimacy and grandeur, The Lumineers have built a live reputation that's as moving as it is memorable.
Formed by founding members Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites, the group first made waves with their 2012 self-titled debut album. Its breakout single Ho Hey became a global folk anthem, propelling the band into international fame. Since then, they've delivered a string of hits — from Cleopatra to fan favourites like Stubborn Love and Ophelia — each showcasing their ability to find beauty in life's small moments and to craft melodies that linger long after the last note.
Their live performances are as much about connection as they are about music. Whether selling out Madison Square Garden, electrifying London's O2 Arena, or delivering unforgettable sets at Glastonbury and Coachella, The Lumineers create concerts that feel less like spectacles and more like shared emotional journeys. This India stop promises the same — a night beneath the open sky where raw, stripped-back folk-rock meets an atmosphere charged with collective energy.
Over the past decade, the band's work has earned them multiple Grammy nominations and a devoted following that spans continents. Their sound — often minimal in instrumentation but rich in emotional texture — resonates across languages and borders.
Tickets for the Delhi-NCR show will go on sale at Noon on August 13 exclusively via BookMyShow. With their track record of transformative live sets, The Lumineers' return is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated musical events of the coming year.

‘They've broken up with you': Comedian John Oliver roasts Schumer for naming fake couple 265 times
Comedian John Oliver mocked US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's frequent invoking of a fictional couple, saying that his 'imaginary friends' have 'already broken up' with him. Chuck Schumer, who describes the fictional couple as Reagan-era Republicans, has also weaved intricate details of their personal lives.(REUTERS) Schumer, on various occasions throughout his political career, has mentioned a fictional Long Island couple named Joe and Eileen Bailey who are meant to represent the average American voters. The Democrat, who describes the couple as Reagan-era Republicans, has also weaved intricate details of their personal lives, like their love for Kung Pao chicken, Joe's habit of singing the national anthem at the Islanders games and more. 'The Baileys have guided Chuck Schumer's political life — which is a little weird given they don't exist," Oliver said during his monologue on Last Week Tonight. He further showed clips of Schumer's 'unnecessarily detiled' constant mentions of the couple. 'I have conversations with them… one of my staffers once said I had imaginary friends to the press, got me in some trouble,' Schumer said in one of the clips shown by Oliver. The characters were first introduced in a book authored by Schumer titled 'Positively American: Winning Back the Middle-Class Majority One Family at a Time'. During his monologue, Oliver said that the Baileys, who Schumer sees as middle-class voters, have been mentioned by the New York lawmaker 265 times in the book, which has 264 pages. Speaking about the details provided by Schumer about the couple over the years, from their salaries to their economic and political beliefs, Oliver said that the Senator had provided a 'J.R.R. Tolkien-level of gratuitous backstory'. Oliver also spoke about how the Baileys had influenced Schumer's positions on several issues, including the 2008 financial crisis and cybersecurity. However, the comedian goes on to highlight that despite Schumer's focus on the couple, the Baileys seem to have deserted him, while highlighting that the Senator himself admitted that the couple had voted for US President Donald Trump in five of the last six presidential ballots cast between them. 'Politically, it seems they've already broken up with you,' Oliver said.

Secret Service rushes to Alaska city for Trump-Putin talks
The call to Beau Disbrow was unlike any the Anchorage realtor had ever received. His short-term rentals typically house tourists bound for glaciers or business travellers passing through. This time, the request came from the US Secret Service. The Secret Service is still waiting for Russia to formally approve the full security plan.(AFP) 'Most of my short-term rentals were booked, but I did manage to put some of them into one home,' he said. It was not the last inquiry connected to the highly anticipated summit between President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin set for Friday. Soon after the Secret Service call, the Russian consulate in New York phoned Disbrow with the same request. With no vacancies left, he referred the officials to a friend with furnished homes sitting empty. When Trump announced the Alaska meeting a week ago, the lone agent assigned to the Secret Service's post in the Last Frontier began preparing to host hundreds of reinforcements in the days ahead. The agency's mission was unusually complex: to protect both the American and Russian presidents at the same site, each surrounded by a heavily armed security detail. Four people familiar with the planning said the operation became an all-out sprint, compressed into a single week. Because the meeting is on American soil, the Secret Service can move weapons, communications equipment and medical gear without foreign restrictions. But the geography presents its own hurdles. Anchorage has limited hotel rooms and a small rental-car market, so vehicles and other assets are being flown in or driven from other parts of the state. Motorcade SUVs are arriving from the lower 48 on cargo planes. The summit will take place at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska's largest military installation. A Cold War listening post less than a thousand miles from Russia, the base offers controlled airspace, fortified gates and instant access to military units — and, as an active base, is closed to the public. 'We're in the height of tourist season, so hotels are tight, cars are tight,' Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy said on Bloomberg Television on Thursday. 'Having this on the base alleviates a lot of issues.' While Anchorage has played host to the Pope and to former President Ronald Reagan in years past, the summit is 'one of the biggest things to happen' in the city, said Dunleavy, a Republican. State Department protocol is shaping much of the plan. In a bilateral meeting, officials said, reciprocity rules mean every courtesy extended to one leader must be matched for the other. Russian security will control Putin's immediate movements while the Secret Service maintains an outer ring. Neither side will open the other's doors or ride in the other's vehicles. If 10 US agents are posted outside a meeting room, 10 Russian agents will stand on the other side. Everything is matched body for body, gun for gun, one person said. That symmetry will extend from the arrival motorcade to the placement of translators in the room. Both sides will bring their own language teams. Even the number and size of hold rooms — secure waiting areas for each leader — are being negotiated. The Secret Service is still waiting for Russia to formally approve the full security plan, the people said. 'The safety of the President is our highest priority,' the Secret Service said in a statement. 'In order to maintain operational security, the Secret Service does not discuss the specific means and methods used to conduct our protective operations.' The Alaska deployment lands with the agency also protecting Vice President JD Vance in the United Kingdom, preparing for the United Nations General Assembly in New York next month and providing protection for former presidents Barack Obama, Joe Biden and George W. Bush and for former Vice President Kamala Harris. Twenty agents and officers have also been assigned this week to support Trump's federal takeover of the DC police department. Now, hundreds of agents have descended on Anchorage. Downtown hotels are full, and rental car lots have been cleared for convoys. Agents in suits and earpieces are posted at intersections, while others, in plain clothes, blend into coffee shops and parking garages. Alaska state troopers and local police are folded into motorcade routes that have been mapped down to the turn lane. Every movement of both leaders' vehicles is being choreographed to keep them apart while ensuring each is fully protected. Trump has described the 'feel-out' meeting as an effort toward ending Russia's war in Ukraine, suggesting a territorial swap could be part of a deal. Putin has sought to strengthen his rapport with Trump ahead of their summit, praising the US leader's efforts to broker an end to the war in Ukraine and dangling the promise of economic cooperation as well as a new arms control treaty.
