Mumford and Sons have shared a new single, The Banjo Song.
Co-written with Aaron Dessner of The National and Jon Bellion, the melodic folk-rock track serves up heartfelt lyricism and marks the latest preview of the Grammy-winning London band's sixth album, 'Prizefighter', due out on February 20.
It follows the previously unveiled single Rubber Band Man featuring Hozier and the title track. The follow-up to last year's 'Rushmere' also includes guest appearances from Gracie Abrams, Chris Stapleton and Gigi Perez.
As part of a run of European summer dates, Mumford and Sons will headline London’s BST Hyde Park concert series on July 4, with support from The War On Drugs and more acts that are still to be announced.
Before that, they'll top the bill at Out Of The Blue Festival in Cancun, Mexico this weekend, and Innnings Festival in Tempe, Arizona in February, following a run of UK in-store dates earlier that month. They'll then tour Australia and New Zealand in April and May. Tickets are on sale now.
