Mumford & Sons: New Album ‘Rushmere,’ New Beginnings, Banjos and Waistcoats

Back for the first time as a trio and with their first record since 2018’s Delta, UK indie-folk troupe Mumford & Sons join us in the studio for the first time while in the midst of their underplay tour — which just happens to take in tiny venues such as Sydney Opera House and the Hollywood Palladium. Having cut their teeth in the London folk-pop scene in the late 2000s alongside the likes of Laura Marling, Noah and the Whale, and Johnny Flynn and the Sussex Wit, amongst others, Mumford swiftly rose to international, GRAMMY-winning acclaim, releasing four, and now five records in the process. We talk about the writing process, working with Pharrell Williams and producer David Cobb, how they’re now functioning as a trio, plus religion, fatherhood, and the unexpected influence of dance music on their sound. They also open up about the joy of performance, to banjo-or-not-to-banjo, where have all the waistcoats gone, how Marcus met his wife, actress Carey Mulligan, and much, much more.
