The Cave Photograph by Colin Young-Wolff MUMFORD & SONS: LIVE FROM THE ARTISTS DEN The 1920s glamour of the Belasco Theater in downtown Los Angeles provided a stunning setting for a triumphant performance by Mumford & Sons. The band delivered songs from its recent Number One album, Babel, along with such hits as “Little Lion Man” and “I Will Wait.” Mumford & Sons thrilled the invitation-only crowd of 800 throughout its rousing set, closing the evening with a blistering rendition of “The Cave” from the classic, multi-platinum debut Sigh No More. ARTIST BIO Mumford & Sons was formed in 2007 by English vocalist/multi-instrumentalists Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett, “Country” Winston Marshall, and Ted Dwane. The band’s first recorded material, an EP entitled Love Your Ground, was released in 2009, followed shortly thereafter by its breakout, full- length debut, Sigh No More. The band steadily gained popularity throughout 2010, receiving increased popularity after its electrifying performance with Bob Dylan at the Grammy Awards. The album won the BRIT Award for Best British Album in 2011 and was nominated for six Grammy Awards. Following months of touring, the band reconvened in Nashville to begin work on new material.

Es un tipo grande, de cara ancha, con expresión de cierta arrogancia, adornada aho- ra con un bigote a lo Errol Flynn. Pero en sus ojos, que fluctúan entre el marrón y el azul (“Mi madre lo llama color avellana”) hay algo vulnerable y escrutador. Mumford, de 26 años, lleva dos meses sufriendo unas bru- tales migrañas producidas por el estrés, y jura que el palo santo, un tipo de incienso sudame- ricano, es lo único que consigue aliviarlas. “Lo he probado todo, hasta he llegado a hacerme un escáner del cerebro”, explica. Hace poco que el productor T Bone Burnett le introdujo en el uso de este tipo de incienso, algo bastan- te razonable: Burnett eligió las canciones para la banda sonora de la película de los Cohen O brother (2000), recopilación de música de raí- ces e influencia clave en la estética color sepia de Mumford & Sons. “Siempre me siento ligeramente avergon- zado cuando digo que O brother es una gran influencia”, comenta Mumford, quien tenía 13 años cuando se estrenó la película.
