A fan has reached out to us to say that they have been the subject of ongoing bullying by other fans. The band have already stated very clearly via a statement on their forum on May 26th 2016 that bullying of any sort is completely unacceptable in this community.
As management we would like to back up that statement by saying that we are very upset to hear reports that certain people are purporting either to represent management or have the ear of management.
It is no secret who manages Mumford & Sons, our names are listed on our company website www.everybody-s.com. If you don’t hear from one of these people then you are not speaking to management and you should be very suspicious of anybody else who is claiming to represent the band.
If you suspect anyone of posing as a representative of the band, or you feel bullied by other fans please do not hesitate to write to willis@gentlemenoftheroad.com and your email will be dealt with in complete confidence (by us!).
Thank you,
Adam Tudhope and Beth Warren

With the Global Citizen Festival fast approaching, we’re so happy to announce that we will be playing an intimate show at United Palace Theatre on the 18th of September to kick the week off.
We will be partnering with Global Citizen and Citibank, who are covering the costs of the show, so that all – and we mean ALL – ticket proceeds can go both to GC and, we’re proud to announce, to Children in Conflict.
This will be the inaugural event launching Children in Conflict in the United States, a partner of War Child UK, an organisation we’ve been advocates of for a while. We are massive fans of what they do to protect children in conflict areas around the world. We are excited to be there at the beginning of their story in your wonderful country.
For the first time, we will be using pricing tiers and dynamic ticket pricing on this show. We’re confident that this will help stop tickets ending up on secondary ticket websites, ensuring that we can raise as much money as possible for these charities that are close to our hearts, rather than putting cash in the hands of brokers and ticket touts.
Tickets are on sale now below.
As you know, we’re committed to ensuring that tickets end up in the hands of fans, not scalpers, so we will once again be using Lyte as our official ticket exchange partner.
Sign up to get on the waiting list for an official ticket for a sold-out show, or sell back your ticket instantly. We will also release extra tickets in batches nearer to the event date, so be sure to sign up to hear first.

Back in the summer of 2013, our good buddies in The Very Best brought down the great Baaba Maal to our Stopover festival in Lewes. How fortuitous that turned out to be.
Upon meeting him Baaba immediately told us about his festival in Senegal, Blues du Fleuve. Baaba told us that it had the same focus on community and the same focus on celebrating the local. Well it turns out that his festival is even more of a stopover than our stopovers.
I jumped at his invitation to join him and go out to his home in the desert frontier town of Podor, a casual 12 hour drive from Dakar out into the Sahara. I’ve not worked out how to describe it to people but thankfully I don’t have to anymore because this wonderful documentary has been made.
The week I spent out there was pure magic and this film gives a pretty good glimpse of it. Sit back, enjoy, and hopefully, see you at the next Blues du Fleuve!
