It feels like a moment to thank everyone for their support of the band and our album Babel. Our friends and family at home and our new friends and family in America. It’s all very bizarre but jokes nonetheless. This does a lot to help us continue our dreams of touring more and making new music.

More importantly though, the day before yesterday Ryan Giggs scored to continue his record of scoring in every premier league. That’s 21 back-to-back. Whoever you support you’ve got to give it to him.

Much love,
W, B, M & T x

Um. So.

Mumford & Sons won a GRAMMY Award! In fact they won TWO; one for Album of the Year with Babel and one for Best Long Form Music Video with Big Easy Express.

You can watch the moment the band collect their award from the lovely Adele at Sunday night’s ceremony here.

A little update from the Webstore, which has recently received a new shipment of fine wares including t-shirts, a poster and a limited edition 7″ vinyl.

Over this way you’ll find you’ll find some newly created t-shirts, based on the beautiful official tour designs, to mark the current run of East Coast US tour dates. So whether you were there or not you can still get there t-shirt. There’s also a limited edition print poster too.

Most excitingly, and continuing the tradition from the earliest days of Mumford & Sons, you can also now pre-order the limited edition 7″ vinyl of new single Whispers In The Dark. It’s due for release on 18th March and only 1,000 copies will be made available worldwide.

As Pep Guardiola would probably say, keeping possession of the ball is Rules One, Two and Three of football. As Mumford & Sons would definitely say, Rules One, Two and Three of being a band are: Play Live.
 
The Gentlemen of the Road Stopovers are all about live music. We get to put them on in towns not normally frequented by touring bands in buses or splitter vans. We deliberately look for towns that have something unique, or some vibe of which they are proud,  explore them and enjoy what they have to offer.
 
It’s a real privilege that being in Mumford & Sons has allowed us to be able to shine a light on these towns, places that sometimes don’t get the love they deserve, and to be the facilitators of great musical coming-togethers. We actually get to put on our own shows. Which means that we get to ask our favourite bands to come and play a show with us, where we just get to watch them play all day. Five times in one summer too. Badass.
 
But there’s another rule that applies to both football and music. Doing the Stopovers means that we get to invite a whole bunch of other people to watch these bands with us. And that, the shared experience, is basically all that live music is about.
 
We’re really excited to be doing more Stopovers and we can’t wait to see as many of you as possible this summer!
 
M, W, B & T
