Paste is proud to partner with The Lumineers to give away tickets to their massive upcoming tour.
In just a few short years, the band has graduated from small rooms to arenas across the world, and to celebrate, they’re sharing some of their favorite memories and photos from their early days as a touring group in the gallery above.
But they want to hear from you, too. Once you’ve checked out their memories, send your own favorite story about or experience with The Lumineers to lumineersstories@pastemagazine.com or submit it here to be entered to win tickets to one of the US shows on their upcoming tour. Be sure to include your name and address in the email.
The Lumineers themselves will be reading through the entries and selecting three winners (who will each receive two tickets to a US show on the tour). The deadline to enter is midnight on Jan. 13, and the winners will be announced on Jan. 16.

"A setlist from SXSW 2011 (Austin, TX). We had played about 12 shows in three days (Including one for Paste!) While playing, I must have nicked my hand on the floor tom, making my hand bleed. The setlist Wes had written on this scrap of paper provided a quick towel."

"Mississippi Studios, Portland, OR 2011. While recording our first record, we would drive four hours from the studio every Sunday to play at Mississippi Studios in Portland. They fed us burgers and beer, for which we were very grateful."
