Mumford & Sons announce details of their new album, ‘Rushmere’, their first since 2018’s Delta. It is set for release on 28th March 2025 through Island EMI Group / Glassnote.
Mumford & Sons released their debut album, Sigh No More, back in 2009. It blended their unique take on the classic folk blueprint with an exhilarating and euphoric sound more akin to a rock band and simultaneously helped to revive one of music’s earliest genres into a new century. It’s a sound that has since taken them on an incredible journey.
Through four albums, the British band have accumulated various awards for their work, notably two BRIT Awards, two GRAMMY Awards (including the prestigious Album of the Year), multiple chart-topping, multi-platinum album successes right across the globe, a string of festival headlining performances (including Glastonbury), and selling out arenas tour after tour (including their biggest numbers to date in the US in conclusion of the Delta tour back in 2019).
Rushmere is the spot where it all began for Mumford & Sons. The pond, located on Wimbledon Common in south-west London, is where Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett, and Ted Dwane first hung out and imagined the initial idea of putting a band together. Rushmere was as familiar to them as the instruments they played, and is at the heart of their origin story.
Rushmere is the beginning for Mumford & Sons’ next phase, and it follows an intense period of creativity for the now trio (following the departure from the band of Winston Marshall in 2021). It’s an emphatic return.
Mumford & Sons are Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett, and Ted Dwane.
