Marcus Mumford built Mumford and Sons after his long standing position as Laura Marling's drummer / harmoniser began to earn him praise from all who saw them play live together. His battered and raspy voice soars with emotion over massive swells of country-tinged orchestral pop. Lovelorn lyrics filled with hope, anger, fear and every passionate extreme in between mean mumford and sons are sure to achieve a massive amount of praise for their debut album 'Sigh No More', which demonstrates the strength in both song and sound. togetherness is fundamental to mumford and sons. It's there in the tightness of the arrangements, and the four part harmonies - it's pretty unusual to hear pitch-perfect harmonies that are also meaty, masculine and downright loud. and it's in the simple fact that mumford and sons get such a kick out of playing together.
