MUMFORD & SONS CONFIRM EXCLUSIVE ALBUM SCREENINGS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC

13/11/2018

FOURTH STUDIO ALBUM DELTA OUT THIS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16

BAND CONFIRMS MASSIVE 63-DATE WORLDWIDE ARENA TOUR

Mumford & Sons will host listening events at movie theatres across North America this Thursday, November 15, allowing a select group of fans exclusive access to their fourth studio album, Delta, on the eve of its release. These screenings-held in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Washington, DC and Toronto-will feature the complete album audio accompanied by visuals directed and edited by Caleb Bardgett, Johnny Dunn and Kees van Dijkhuizen and curated in partnership with National Geographic. Of the concept, the band shares, While we were recording and mixing Delta, we watched a lot of films on silent including some pretty epic wildlife films by National Geographic-like a vision-track to our soundtrack. So, we felt it would be a nice idea to let fans experience the record in this way too. Jill Cress, CMO of National Geographic, adds, We are excited to have played a part in inspiring Mumford & Sons latest album and look forward to teaming up with the band to bring audiences a unique musical and visual experience they'll never forget. By pairing the work of some of the world's most talented filmmakers and photographers with the sounds of these award-winning musicians, we hope to give people an even greater appreciation and understanding of the planet and the importance of protecting it.

Now available for pre-sale on Gentlemen of the Road/Glassnote Records, Delta was produced by Paul Epworth, written collectively by the band and recorded at London's The Church Studios.

Already receiving widespread acclaim, the first single, Guiding Light, recently enjoyed one of the biggest add weeks ever at both Alternative and AAA radio-closing out every station at both panels. The single currently sits at #1 on AAA (three straight weeks) and his headed into the top 5 at Alternative. Watch the single's official music video-which was directed by Joe Connor (Sam Smith, Coldplay) and features the band up close and personal, interacting with their fans-HERE. Moreover, a second song from the album, If I Say, which features string arrangement by renowned British film score composer Sally Herbert, recently premiered as Zane Lowe's World Record on Beats1. Listen/share HERE.

Earlier this fall, the band debuted Guiding Light on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon with special guests The Roots. Watch the performance HERE. Marcus Mumford also joined host Jimmy Fallon as a guest on the couch. Watch the interview HERE. Additionally, Rolling Stone calls the single, wildly experimental Delta has the band incorporating elements of electronica, rap, jazz and other sonic territory rarely visited, while Paste asserts, If it's any indication of how Delta will sound as a whole, this could shape up to be the band's most experimental album yet.

In celebration of the album, the band will embark on an extensive 63-date worldwide arena tour this fall featuring a groundbreaking new in-the-round stage design. Kicking off November 16 in Dublin, the tour will span throughout next spring and includes fall North American stops at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center (sold out), Boston's TD Garden (sold out), New York's Madison Square Garden (two nights, first sold out), DC's Capital One Arena (sold out) and Toronto's Scotiabank Arena (two nights, first sold out). Special guest Maggie Rogers will join as support. The band's largest tour to date, the Delta Tour 2018/2019 includes over 800,000 tickets, which are now on sale via https://www.mumfordandsons.com/live. See below for complete tour details.

Marking ten years since Mumford & Sons made their meteoric debut, the new music follows 2015's Wilder Mind, which debuted at No. 1 in the U.S., U.K., Australia Canada, Ireland, the Netherlands and Norway and, most recently, 2016's collaborative Johannesburg mini album. Previous LPs include 2012's Babel, which was awarded the 2013 Grammy for Album of the Year, and their 2009 debut, Sigh No More.

Mumford & Sons are Ben Lovett, Marcus Mumford, Ted Dwane and Winston Marshall.
