UK chart topping Americana superstars The Lumineers are spotlighting rainforest charity Cool Earth this Christmas, supporting the award-winning charity working with indigenous rainforest communities across the globe to halt deforestation. The Lumineers are donating all proceeds from their re-work of classic Christmas record “Blue Christmas’.
