Mumford & Sons Announce Intimate World Tour and New Album ‘Rushmere’
Mumford & Sons, the acclaimed British folk-rock band, is back with a bang, ready to grace the global stage with a series of exclusive performances at intimate venues across Europe, the U.K., Australia, and North America. Fans eagerly anticipate the launch of their latest album, Rushmere, scheduled for release on March 28 under Glassnote Records. The forthcoming album marks the band’s first tour in the U.K. and Europe since 2018, generating immense excitement among their global fanbase.
The Grammy-winning trio is all set to embark on their global club tour, commencing in March with shows in iconic cities like Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, and the U.K., followed by a spectacular performance at the esteemed Sydney Opera House. The tour will come to a close with four electrifying dates across North America in Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, and Brooklyn.
In an effort to ensure a fair ticket allocation process, exclusive access will be granted to members of agora, the band’s fan community, starting on Thursday, February 13. Subsequently, a limited number of tickets will be made available to the general public at 10:00 AM local time on Friday, February 14. Fans keen on securing tickets should express their interest via agora by Monday, February 10, at 11:59 PM GMT. Each fan can register for only one event to avoid duplicate entries, and access to ticket sales will be facilitated through unique codes that will be communicated by Wednesday, February 12, at 6:00 PM local time. It’s important to note that receiving a code does not guarantee ticket availability, with a purchase limit set at two tickets per transaction.
In a philanthropic initiative, Mumford & Sons have teamed up with PLUS1 to support War Child, an organization devoted to safeguarding, educating, and advocating for children impacted by conflict. A dollar from every ticket sold will be donated to this noble cause.
The band’s newest album, Rushmere, is a sentimental tribute to its origins. Inspired by Rushmere Pond on Wimbledon Common, where the band’s members Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett, and Ted Dwane initially toyed with the idea of forming a band, the album heralds a new phase for the talented trio following an incredibly creative period.
Crafted under the expertise of nine-time Grammy Award winner Dave Cobb, Rushmere was recorded across different locations including RCA Studio A in Nashville, Savannah, GA, and Marcus Mumford’s personal studio in Devon, U.K. The title track of the album has already been revealed, sending waves of anticipation through the fan base.
Prior to hitting the road for their tour, Mumford & Sons will make a buzzing appearance at the sensational SNL: The Homecoming Concert, celebrating 50 years of Saturday Night Live. The event, featuring performances by music icons such as David Byrne, Jack White, Chris Martin, and Lady Gaga, will unfold at Radio City Music Hall in New York and will be broadcast live via Peacock for U.S. viewers on February 14.
As the band gears up for a new era with Rushmere, their return to intimate venues offers fans a rare chance to rediscover the band’s authentic, heartfelt sound up close. Fans are encouraged to sign up with agora and register their interest in the show they wish to attend by February 10 to snag an unforgettable experience.
