Folk-rock sensation The Lumineers to perform in Delhi as part of ‘The Automatic World Tour'

The Hindu20 hours ago
American folk-rock band The Lumineers will perform in India early next year as part of The Automatic World Tour. The concert is scheduled for February 1, 2026, at Huda Ground, Delhi-NCR, and will be produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live.
The Delhi performance will form part of the band's global tour in support of their fifth studio album, Automatic, released in February 2025. Tickets for the event will go on sale on August 13, 2025, at noon, exclusively via BookMyShow.
Formed in Denver, Colorado, The Lumineers are led by founding members Wesley Schultz (lead vocals, guitar) and Jeremiah Fraites (drums, percussion, piano). Known for their stripped-down instrumentation and emotionally direct songwriting, the band rose to prominence with their self-titled debut album in 2012, which reached No. 2 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and featured the hit single Ho Hey. That success was followed by albums including Cleopatra (2016), III (2019), and Brightside (2022), each further cementing their reputation in the folk-rock genre.
Tracks such as Stubborn Love, Ophelia, Angela, and Cleopatra have become audience favourites, often featuring prominently in their live performances. The band's music has earned them multiple Grammy nominations and a strong global fan base.
Known for their dynamic and emotional concerts, The Lumineers have previously performed to sold-out crowds at venues such as Madison Square Garden in New York and the O2 Arena in London, and have appeared at major festivals including Coachella and Glastonbury.
The Automatic World Tour aims to bring that same level of energy and intimacy to audiences worldwide. The upcoming Delhi show will offer Indian fans in the chance to hear new tracks from Automatic alongside established favourites.
