Emily's Albums A to Z

Listened: Tuesday March 8

Someone was asking how I would describe Mumford & Sons, and the only think I could think to say was “Well, they’re like Fleet Foxes in the harmonizing neo-folk sense, but instead of being American sensitive-poet types, they’re more like intense English bros.” Seemed like a good description to me.

The singalongs at their Coachella 2011 set were epic, particularly on Little Lion Man. Their music is the kind you could sing in a pub or in a field with thousands of people. They noted that show was “easily the largest” they’d ever played. Good for them!
