On July 23, 2025, The Lumineers brought their Automatic World Tour to the Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre in Maryland Heights, MO, delivering a heartfelt and energetic performance that left the St. Louis crowd buzzing. Supported by Hippo Campus, the Grammy-nominated indie folk band from Denver showcased their signature storytelling and foot-stomping anthems under a warm summer sky.
The setlist blended tracks from their latest album, Automatic (released February 2025), with timeless hits like “Ho Hey,” “Ophelia,” and “Cleopatra.” The band, led by Wesley Schultz’s soulful vocals and Jeremiah Fraites’ dynamic percussion, hit their stride early with “A.M. Radio,” inviting the audience to sing along in true Lumineers fashion. The crowd’s energy soared during “Big Parade,” where call-and-response verses ignited a communal spirit.
Despite the large venue, the band created an intimate vibe, with Schultz sharing nostalgic anecdotes that resonated with fans. The LED bracelets distributed to concertgoers added a vibrant, colorful touch, lighting up the amphitheater during “Stubborn Love.” However, some fans noted slight sound issues, with occasional reverb muddying Schultz’s banter, though the music remained crisp.
Hippo Campus opened with a lively set, complementing The Lumineers’ folksy charm. The Lumineers’ ability to balance raw emotion with infectious melodies made this a memorable night for St. Louis fans, proving their live shows are as captivating as ever.
