Today, Big Concerts revealed that the band will be performing in Cape Town on 26th April 2017 at Green Point Park and 28th April 2017 at the Ticketpro Dome in Johannesburg.
The Lumineers made it big after releasing their global hit ‘Ho Hey’ which spent 62 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. the band’s follow-up single, “Stubborn Love”, climbed to #1 on the Alternative radio charts and was also featured on President Obama’s Summer Playlist. Now, the band continues it’s journey with ‘Cleopatra’. The album reached number one on the South African iTunes charts as well as topping charts in countries such as the UK, the United States of America and Canada.
