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. LIVE FROM WRIGLEY FIELD is heralded by today’s premiere of “Gale Song (Feat.

The live version features special guest vocals of GRAMMY® Award-nominated singer-songwriter James Bay. The official live performance video is now streaming on YouTube.

Among the set’s innumerable highlights are joyful takes on classic hits like “Ho Hey,” “Stubborn Love,” “Gloria,” “Brightside,” and the RIAA 4x Platinum-certified “Ophelia,” along with such beloved tracks as “Submarines,” “Sleep On The Floor,” “A.M.

LIVE FROM WRIGLEY FIELD documents a landmark moment in The Lumineers’ career, showcasing their sophisticated songcraft, exceptional musicianship and the deep sense of community they share with their fans that has 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”
