Mumford & Sons – Latest News, New Songs, and Tour Updates
If you love Mumble‑heavy banjos, heartfelt lyrics, and a band that can switch from folk‑rooted to arena‑ready in a single track, you’re in the right place. This tag page gathers everything you need to know about Mumford & Sons right now—new releases, upcoming concerts, and the stories that keep fans coming back for more.
New Releases: What’s Hot on the Playlist?
After a quiet year, Mumford & Sons dropped their surprise EP "River & Stone" last month. The lead single, "Midnight Light," blends Marcus' signature mandolin riffs with a modern synth layer, creating a sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Fans are raving about the lyrical hook—"We chase the river, we chase the night"—which references the band's early days playing riverbank gigs.
Streaming numbers show "Midnight Light" already crossed 5 million streams on Spotify. If you haven’t added it yet, hit that "Add to Playlist" button and let the chorus pull you in. The EP also includes a quiet acoustic ballad called "Old Oak," recorded live at a small London venue. It’s a perfect example of how the band can strip back to raw, emotional storytelling without any studio tricks.
Upcoming Tours & Live Shows
Good news for anyone craving a live Mumford & Sons experience: the band announced a North‑American leg starting in September, hitting major cities like Chicago, Austin, and New York. Tickets are selling fast, especially for the Madison Square Garden stop, where they plan a special encore featuring a guest fiddler from the Appalachian tradition.
If you’re in the UK, the band will roll into London’s O2 Arena in October, followed by a few surprise pop‑up shows in smaller venues across the country. Those pop‑ups are meant to give fans a more intimate vibe—think local pubs, back‑yard stages, and a chance to hear the kids’ chorus on "The Wolf" live for the first time.
Want to stay ahead of the ticket rush? Sign up for the band’s newsletter (link at the bottom of the page) and keep an eye on the official website’s “Tour Alerts” section. The early‑bird tickets usually go on sale a week before the general release, and you’ll get a discount code for merch if you buy early.
Beyond big venues, Mumford & Sons are also planning a series of acoustic livestreams. These sessions will be streamed on YouTube and feature Q&A segments where Marcus talks about the songwriting process for "River & Stone." It’s a great way to connect with the band without leaving your couch.

Bookmark it, check back regularly, and you’ll never miss a new track, a tour date, or a behind‑the‑scenes story that makes Mumford & Sons feel like a community rather than just a band.
