The Lumineers Cleopatra

Cleopatra is the second studio album from American folk-rock band The Lumineers, released in 2016 as the highly anticipated follow-up to their breakout debut. Building on their signature acoustic sound, the album delivers a rich and emotive collection of songs centred around storytelling, melody and raw, heartfelt performances.

Led by Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites, alongside cellist and vocalist Neyla Pekarek, Cleopatra expands the band’s sound while retaining the intimacy that made them so widely loved. The album explores themes of love, regret and identity, often told through character-driven narratives.

Featuring standout tracks such as “Ophelia,” “Angela,” and the title track “Cleopatra,” the record balances stripped-back acoustic arrangements with more expansive, piano-driven moments. Produced by Simone Felice, the album captures a warm, organic sound that complements the band’s emotional songwriting.

A commercial and critical success, Cleopatra debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, solidifying The Lumineers’ place as one of the leading acts in modern folk and Americana.

This 180g vinyl LP edition presents the album with enhanced warmth and depth, offering a timeless listening experience for fans of heartfelt, acoustic-driven music.
