As reported in MusicRow’s June/July print magazine, The Lumineers have re-signed with Nashville’s Dualtone Records to release its second album in the U.S.. Decca/Universal will release the forthcoming project for the rest of the world.

Lead singer and guitar player Wesley Schultz took to the band’s Instagram (pictured) to announce they were back in their Denver, Colo. home studio.

“We consider The Lumineers and their team as family and we are thrilled to be continuing our partnership forward with their sophomore album,” said GM of Dualtone Records Paul Roper. “The early songs we have heard are proof that they are writing material every bit as compelling as the tracks from their debut. This record will be well worth the wait.”

New material from the “Ho Hey” band will also be included in the upcoming TV soundtrack for The Walking Dead, and the feature film soundtrack for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1.

A world tour will wrap the end of 2014 for the Denver band.
