The Lumineers played an intimate gig at Oxford Street’s HMV on Wednesday (13 April), performing seven tracks from their debut album as well as their follow-up, Cleopatra.
The band performed the gig as part of their worldwide tour to promote their latest album, which was released earlier this month.
The group took a stripped-down approach to their performance, making do with their vocals one guitar, one cello, one kick drum, a keyboard and a couple of tambourines. Frontman Wesley Schultz even teased that percussionist Jeremiah Fraites, who was in charge of thumping the kick drum whilst layering out chords on the keyboard, was Mary Poppins’s Bert for the night.
The band started their set evening with ‘Flowers In Your Hair’, before launching into material from their new album, including ‘Sleep On The Floor’ and the title track, ‘Cleopatra’.
As he has done many times before, Schultz told the crowd to put their phones away and to just “be there with us”.
Fans who were lucky enough to attend the event seemed to have deserved their place there, with most of the audience singing along to every track, proving their ardent support for the band.
After the brief but memorable seven song set, the band stayed behind and fraternized with their fans, signing records and snapping selfies.
The setlist was as follows.
1. Flowers in Your Hair
2. Sleep on the Floor
3. Ophelia
4. Angela
5. Ho Hey
6. Cleopatra
7. Stubborn Love
