The Lumineers were formed in Denver, Colorado in 2002. Most of the members are from other parts of the U.S.

Originally the group had six members.

Wesley Schultz (lead vocals, guitar) and Jeremiah Fraites (drums, piano) both of whom write the majority of the songs. Neyla Pekarek (cello, piano) left in 2018.

Also formerly in the group are Jay Van Dyke,Maxwell and Hughes,Ben Wahamaki, I can find no reason why they left the band, but as with most groups, it is always a disagreement on direction of the band and musical choices.

The two remaining members are touring on with extra musicians filling in for their departed members.
