Reviewing their performance at the 2022 Harvest Rock festival in Adelaide, The Music’s Melissa Griffin stated that The Lumineers “led a joyful crowd” as they played their biggest hits and launched into a mini cover of The Rolling Stones’ You Can’t Always Get What You Want.

Griffin continued, “Celebrating 10 years since the release of their debut album this year, The Lumineers perform an energetic set with each of the six band members singing along to every song, like no time has passed. Against the perfect backdrop of towering trees, the folk-rock group still look right at home on a big festival stage.”
