Mumford and Sons – Sigh No More

  • December 7, 2009

The British quartet Mumford & Sons gained notoriety as the backing band for Laura Marling and from three stellar EP’s before releasing their full-length debut album. Sigh No More is a polished folk album filled with gentle banjos and pining mandolins, gorgeous harmonies and dark undertones. Mumford & Sons’ lyrics and arrangements are meticulously composed, infused with subtle intricacies that develop into dynamic musical flourishes. If you dig the harmonies and banjo based songs of The Avett Brothers or the spirited delivery of Arcade Fire and Fanfarlo, then you’ll enjoy Sigh No More. – Written by JFelton
