The Lumineers Release Their Cover Of 'Blue Christmas' was a Top 3 story on Monday: (Radio.com) After performing a cover of "Blue Christmas," a holiday song made famous by Elvis Presley, last week (December 1st) at the National Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony, The Lumineers have released that track to stream.
Fans of the indie band will appreciate their low key take on Presley's hit. Wesley Schultz's mournful vocals reverberate in The Lumineers' version until Neyla Pekarek joins him, adding harmonies to make the already melancholy song even more somber.

The band keeps the instrumentation stripped down to the essentials, so the lyrics maintain their impact. "Blue Christmas" is available on iTunes, Spotify and more. Listen - here.
