Brightside is the upcoming fourth studio album by American indie folk band the Lumineers, scheduled to be released on January 14, 2022, through Dualtone and Decca Records.
It was primarily produced by Simone Felice and David Baron.
It was preceded by the release of three singles: the title track, "Big Shot”, and “A.M. Radio.”
Recording
Simone Felice, producer of the Lumineers' Cleopatra and III, returned to produce the album alongside David Baron, who also served as mixer and engineer.
The album was recorded in two sessions that took place in early ("winter and spring") 2021 at Baron's Sun Mountain Studios in Boiceville, New York.
Lead single "Brightside" was recorded in a single day.
Singer-guitarist Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites performed most of the instrumentation themselves, with Baron providing keyboards and backing vocals.
Other contributions came from the Felice Brothers' James Felice, singer-songwriter Diana DeMuth, touring members Byron Isaacs and Lauren Jacobson, and backing singer Cindy Mizelle.
