Lumineers Live at Somerset Wisconsin – August 29, 2023

Lumineers Live at Somerset

The Lumineers concert at Somerset Amphitheater on August 29, 2023, was one of those perfect nights where everything just clicked—an ideal blend of setting, music, and vibe. With a warm summer evening in Wisconsin, the venue itself set the stage for a laid-back, intimate experience. The amphitheater has gone through some upgrades, including a new set of premium front-row seats, adding an extra layer of comfort for fans.

The show kicked off with “Cleopatra,” which is always a strong choice—it’s such a heart-wrenching, soul-stirring track that immediately draws you in. The crowd felt the energy right away, with Wesley Schultz’s powerful, emotive vocals leading the way, and Jeremiah Fraites’ harmonies providing the perfect complement. The setlist was a great mix of beloved hits like “Ho Hey” and “Stubborn Love” alongside newer tracks from their Brightside album, keeping the vibe fresh but nostalgic at the same time.

One of the standout moments of the night was a stripped-down rendition of “The Runner.” Just Schultz and Fraites on stage, no frills, allowing the raw emotion of the song to truly shine. It was one of those moments where the crowd was completely captivated, hanging on every note. There’s something about the Lumineers’ ability to create such an intimate connection, even in a larger venue, that really makes their shows special.

The band’s energy was infectious—the whole amphitheater swayed, clapped, and sang along. The lighting was simple but effective, complementing the rustic, folk-inspired feel of the music. It was like one big, shared experience, and you could tell that everyone in the crowd was completely invested in the moment.

All in all, this was a show that felt like more than just a concert—it was a celebration of music, connection, and emotion. Whether you’re a long-time fan or just getting into the Lumineers, this performance was a reminder of how powerful live music can be. The night was full of joy, heartfelt moments, and unforgettable melodies—an experience worth remembering.
