Marcus Mumford on Tour
Marcus Mumford is a British-American singer, multi-instrumentalist and producer best known for his many years performing with folk-rock greats Mumford & Sons.
Born in 1987 in Yorba Linda, California, Mumford moved back to the UK with his family as a baby and grew up in Wimbledon Chase, London. While studying at King's College School, he met future bandmate Ben Lovett. In his first year at the University of Edinburgh, he recorded Mumford & Sons' standout debut album Sigh No More (2009), which featured singles "Little Lion Man," "Winter Winds," "The Cave," and "Roll Away Your Stone."
Prior to that, Mumford (along with other members of his band) toured with Laura Marling, with Mumford on percussion.
Two years after the release of Sigh No More, Mumford made Forbes' 30 Under 30 list, which also included Adele and Rihanna that year. Mumford & Sons have released three more albums: 2012's Babel, 2015's Wilder Mind and 2018's Delta.
In 2013, Mumford contributed a cover of the folk classic "Fare Thee Well (Dink's Song)" for the 2013 period film Inside Llewyn Davis. In 2014, Mumford appeared on the collaborative album Lost on the River: The New Basement Tapes alongside other artists such as Elvis Costello, Rhiannon Giddens, Taylor Goldsmith, Jim James, Jay Bellerose, and T Bone Burnett.
As a producer, Mumford has produced Christian Letts' (Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros) 2015 album Hold Fast. He also co-wrote four tracks for the record: "Copper Bells," "La Mer," "Emeralds," and "Matches."
Mumford has also contributed instrumentals to a number of tracks from his contemporaries, including on Taylor Swift's "Cowboy Like Me" (from 2020's Evermore) and Tom Morello's 2018 track "Find Another Way." His vocals are featured on Major Lazer's 2020 song "Lay Your Head On Me." He also wrote the theme song for the hit TV show "Ted Lasso," which premiered on Apple TV+ in 2020.
In July 2022, Mumford announced his debut solo album Self-Titled would be out that fall. Produced by Blake Mills, Self-Titled features guest spots from Brandi Carlile, Phoebe Bridgers, Clairo, and Monica Martin. Its lead single is "Cannibal," which has a video directed by Steven Spielberg.
Fantastic show from a talented singer song writer. As with Mumford and Sons he takes the time to do personal and more intimate versions of songs, like I Will Wait without a monitor. Great venue to see an artist like him with such a personal album.
Marcus Mumford has such a captive voice, I strongly encourage everyone who wants to see him live to definitely do it!! I enjoyed every second of the full two hours he played at Massey Hall in Toronto. Not only did he perform well, he banter with the crowed and made hilarious references to “Canada vs America rivalry”. I could not recommend this concert enough.!!
Soulful, engaged, he played like he wanted to be there and share his experience with us. Amazing vocals and arrangements. My favourite is when he went off mic to sing to a completely hushed room. That is an experience to have with an artist!!
This was such a special evening. Marcus has talents that go beyond human. His voice, his energy. Outstanding
I have been to many concerts and this has to be up at the top for me. I have seen Mumford and Sons 3 times, but Marcus on his own was so powerful. What an incredible voice in a beautiful venue.
