Thanks in part to their ubiquitous catchy shout-along, foot-stomping single, Hey Ho, The Lumineers emerged as arguably the biggest break-out act of 2012. The Denver-based band’s music was seemingly everywhere, from television shows to commercials to a healthy dose of radio play, helping the folk-pop act sell nearly 700,000 copies of their self-titled debut. The band, who have also been nominated for two Grammys for Best New Artist and Best Americana Album, are looking to have an even bigger 2013, as yesterday it was revealed that they will be the musical guest on the January 19, episode of Saturday Night Live, which will be hosted by Jennifer Lawrence (Silver Linings Playbook).

The Lumineers will follow their appearance on the long-running late-night sketch show with a brief six-date headlining tour, which brings them to New York’s cavernous Terminal 5 for a two-night stand on February 1 and 2.
