So tell me have you heard of Mumford & Sons? Peter has been a fan for awhile...but I would have to sadly say that my first introduction to them was just this year.
So according to Wikipedia, Mumford & Sons are a four-person, English folk rock band that formed in October 2007. The name is slightly deceiving considering the band is NOT made up of a dad named Mumford and his 3 sons - none of the band members are actually related, but you quickly get past the deception once you hear their music and their sound!!
So their debut album, Sigh No More, was released in the United Kingdom in October 2009, and February 2010 in the United States. So I guess I am not THAT behind the times! And then in December 2010, the band received two Grammy Award nominations, one for Best New Artist and the other for Best Rock Song (Little Lion Man). I think one of the videos below is this song...but I honestly can't remember!
So as of March 2011, Sigh No More has sold over 1,000,000 copies in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Give them a chance...and check them out!
