Preorders are available now. “Same Old Song,” the first single from the album, is proving to be the fastest-rising single of the band’s career. It’s currently No. 4 at AAA and No. 6 at alternative radio in the states, while achieving No. 4 at alternative and No. 14 at active rock in Canada, cementing The Lumineers’ continued impact on the modern music landscape.

What’s more, The Lumineers will officially herald the Valentine’s Day release of “Automatic” with a special late-night network TV performance on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” set for tomorrow, Feb. 13 (11:35 p.m., WGRZ-TV Channel 2).

Before the North American dates, the band will embark on the European leg of the “Automatic World Tour” starting April 23. These shows have the band playing the biggest venues in Europe of its career, including the O2 in London, and saw tickets go at breakneck speed with the 20,000-capacity arenas in St. Anne’s Park in Dublin and AFAS in Amsterdam selling out months in advance.

On top of their own shows, The Lumineers will headline upcoming festivals including Tempe, Arizona’s Extra Innings Festival (Feb. 28), Louisville, Kentucky’s Bourbon & Beyond (Sept. 11-14), and Richmond, Virginia’s Iron Blossom Music Festival (Sept. 20-21). 

After 20 years of musical partnership, “Automatic” finds Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites traveling new sonic and thematic terrain with their most raw and personal collection thus far. Both men, now dads, fully embraced the life-altering, unromantic challenges and rewards of family life. When they reconvened to write, the emerging songs featured a new, aching vulnerability, sly humor, and bold acknowledgments of need – for love, respect and connection in an increasingly chaotic world.

Inspired by Peter Jackson’s 2021 Beatles documentary “Get Back,” the band, with the help of co-producers David Baron and Simone Felice, set up shop in the expansive tracking room at Woodstock's Utopia Studio. Multiple set-ups – with two sets of drums, three different pianos, and an array of amps, guitars, vocal mics – were laid out, allowing the musicians to pivot and capture as much as possible with minimal delay. The process further freed The Lumineers to perform the songs as a unit, allowing the band to capture the raw, organic presentation of the anthemic new tracks. For the first time on a Lumineers album, the band is credited as co-producers alongside Felice and Baron, who also engineered and mixed, as he did on the band’s last two albums.

Recorded in less than a month, the album, as Schultz says, feels “very much of this era.” While songs like the self-effacing “Asshole” and the spartan, wry “Better Day” reveal a risky intimacy and heretofore untapped undercurrent of humor, “Automatic” remains what fans around the world have come to love about The Lumineers: Shadowy themes wrapped in upbeat, infectious melodies, sky-high choruses destined to be sung by tens of thousands each night on the road, and what Fraites calls “a palpable sense of connection between Wes and me. There’s lots of love on this record.”
