Renowned for their soul-stirring live shows and emotive songwriting, THE LUMINEERS will perform in Christchurch, Auckland, Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Perth – their first visit since 2022’s sold-out run.
Captivating audiences around the globe with their rich instrumentation, raw lyricism and undeniable chemistry, THE LUMINEERS – Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites will deliver some of the most unforgettable performances this summer. Currently on tour in North America and having already lit up sold-out arenas with rapturously received shows across Europe and the UK, today’s news follows the release of the band’s acclaimed fifth studio album, AUTOMATIC.
A stunning evolution in both sound and sentiment, AUTOMATIC is THE LUMINEERS’ first collection of new music in three years. Upon release in February 2025, it debuted at #16 on the Billboard 200 (and #2 on Top Rock Albums, Americana/Folk Albums, and Independent Albums), critics praising the band’s “raw, vulnerable, and emotionally connected” latest effort (American Songwriter). Fans’ first taste came in the form of lead single ‘Same Old Song’, which reached #1 on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Airplay chart – the pair’s eighth song to reach the top spot.
