Mumford And Sons have shared the title track of their newly announced album, and their first in seven years.
With 'Rushmere' due out through Island EMI Group on March 28, the eponymous track offers the London band's signature rousing blend of folk, rock, and bluegrass, and arrives with a video directed by Charlie Robins.
Named after London's Rushmere Pond, where Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett and Ted Dwane first imagined creating a band, 'Rushmere' marks their first release as a trio, after banjo player Winston Marshall left in 2021.
The 10-track LP was recorded in Nashville, as well as Savannah, Georgia, and the UK at Marcus' Devon studio with six-time Grammy-winner Dave Cobb.
The band released the digital-only live compilation 'Gentlemen Of The Road' in 2024, following up their latest studio album, 2018's 'Delta'.
Lead vocalist Mumford, meanwhile, put out his debut solo album, (self-titled), in 2022
