Sing Me to Sleep with Your Sweet Melodies, Mumford and Sons

A few months ago I fell in love with the music of Mumford and Sons. It is a rare occasion to find a band this musically talented that also has such solid lyrics. Their music is perfect, and I mean perfect, for a Saturday afternoon drive through the Shenandoah Valley, or for that matter any mountainous outdoor setting. I've listened to their album in this capacity so many times that it will certainly be jolted back to memory every time I listen to it again, no matter where I live in the coming years. On Thursday night I attended their show at the 9:30 Club and was awed by the band's stage presence and command of their sound in a live space. Mumford and Sons rocked out with one of their new songs, "Lover of the Light," and I thought I'd share a taste from YouTube.


Cheers!
