See here another brilliant bunch emerging from the vibrant west London folk scene. Mumford and Sons are four friends who bonded over their love of country, bluegrass and folk. The almost uber-qualified musicians Ben Lovett, Country Winston, Ted Dwane and frontman Marcus Mumford spent the past two years living out of their tour bus which resulted in their live reputation claiming many a fan. Soon there will be a debut album: Sigh No More produced by Markus Dravs (Arcade Fire, Bjork, The Maccabees).
"What we write about is real, and we sing and play our instruments more passionately cos we feel like we need to. We love honest music," says Winston
