Mumford & Sons have announced details of a UK tour for the Autumn, their biggest headline shows to date.
The new dates will take place in October and will follow a relentless touring schedule for the band, that has taken them across India, Australia, Europe and America over the past 12 months.
In addition to the live dates, the band have also revealed details of a limited edition EP called 'Volume 1' under the band's alter ego, The Wedding Band.
'Volume 1' was produced by Ethan Jones and Dom Monks within two days at a London studio, with some of the band's old friends. The EP comprises of songs that are regularly heard played out on the band's tour bus, but very rarely live on stage.
The 10" EPs will be limited to 100 copies per show, and can be purchased via www.mumfordandsons.com in conjunction with the purchase of gig tickets. Any remaining copies of the EP not sold through the pre-sale will be made available at the venues on the night at £7 each, through Gentlemen of the Road/Chess Club Records.
The EP will also be made available to fans buying tickets for the band's short run of European dates at the end of September in Paris, Amsterdam, Cologne, Berlin and Brussels.
Mumford & Sons UK Tour:
1st October - The O2 Academy, Glasgow
2nd October - The Apollo, Manchester
4th October - The Dome, Brighton
5th October - Rock City, Nottingham
6th October - The O2 Academy, Bristol
8th October - HMV Hammersmith Apollo, London
Tickets are on sale this Wednesday 30th June at 9am, priced from £18.50/£20 (London).
Mumford & Sons' debut album 'Sigh No More' featuring the singles 'Little Lion Man', 'The Cave', 'Winter Winds' and 'Roll Away Your Stone' is out now.
The folk-rock quartet's impressive debut release has gone platinum in the UK and twice platinum in Australia, making the band one of the biggest UK musical exports of recent years. No doubt there's plenty more to come from the London based group.
