Mumford & Sons keen to involve fans in new album

The 'Sigh No More' folkies Mumford & Sons are keen to see the success of their songs in a live setting continue when they release their second album. The band started writing the album whilst touring the United States earlier this year and it is due for release later this year.


In an interview with XFM, vocalist and drummer Ted Dwane said "''We really love the idea of involving our audiences in some way. That's how we did 'Sigh no More'. We did it live, the songs were played in front of crowds, they evolved in front of an audience. We're quite intent on doing that again for the second album. It feels like a logical way to work out what you want to record".


The winners of the 2011 Brit Award for best album have become the first band since Coldplay to sell a million records on both sides of the Atlantic and have been confirmed at this years Glastonbury Festival. The band will also support Arcade Fire at the huge show in Hyde park this summer.


Mumford and Sons tickets are available online
