The Lumineers 

ANOTHER indie pop rock band. Mainstream hipsters like them. Overplayed on every Alternative radio station in the US. You will not be listening to them 5 years from now. They aren't the worst band of all time, but they are definitely nothing more than mediocre.
First time i heard "Ho Hey" by The Lumineers on the radio, i said, "wow i bet these guys wear stupid little hipster hats" NAILED IT.

The Lumineers 

Amazing american band. (Indie Folk / Folk Rock)
Composed by Wesley Schultz (lead vocals, guitar), Jeremiah Fraites (drums, percussion) and Neyla Pekarek (cello), the three of them astonishing artists, musicians, singers & composers.

Their songs have meaningful lyrics, with profound themes about life (& death), love, hopes and regrets, and many others.

Most of people tend to only know the hit "Ho Hey" but they should definitely take a look at all the other songs of the band & mostly at the stories their songs tell.

Among the best songs by The Lumineers, we find: 'Stubborn Love', 'Dead Sea', 'Ophelia', 'Angela', 'Cleopatra' and 'Sleep on the Floor' (the clips of those 3 last songs tell the story of the same woman, and it's amazing)

Few people knows that they actually composed the song 'Hanging Tree' for the movie Hunger Games.
- Did you go the concert of the Lumineers yesterday?
- Yes, and that was awesome. Their voices are as great in real life as in the studio versions, and they do everything by themselves! What great musicians!
