Their unique blend of folk and rock quickly captured the hearts of fans worldwide.
The core of The Lumineers' sound, however, was solidified with the addition of cellist and vocalist Neyla Pekarek in 2010. The band's dynamic trio helped them create a sound that was both raw and heartfelt, paving the way for their breakthrough success. While Pekarek left the band in 2018, her impact on their music remains undeniable.
