The Lumineers Announce Theatrical Premiere Of ‘The Lumineers: Live From The Artists Den’ & ‘III’

Limited screenings of the double feature will take place in movie theatres nationwide April 1-30. An announcement notes that dates vary by region and are subject to change depending on local cinema reopening conditions. The screenings are presented in association with Artists Den Entertainment and CineLife Entertainment, which is utilizing the CinemaSafe program “promoting protocols and guidelines developed and supported by leading epidemiologists to support a safe return to movie theatres.”

The band’s edition of “Live from the Artists Den” was filmed in 2016 at the Kings Theatre in the band’s former home base of Brooklyn, N.Y. The double feature marks the first-ever screening of the complete performance. The film features three unreleased songs and never-before-seen interview footage. This is the first chance “III” is being released wide to audiences after the short film had its world premiere in the special events category at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival.

“Pairing our Artists Den show from the Kings Theatre with the film III, the motion picture companion to our album of the same name, is truly special,” The Lumineers’ Wesley Schultz says in a statement. “We are excited to partner with CineLife to bring our film to the world, providing a unique night of both a live show and a visual album.”
