To be honest I have been a Mumford & Sons sceptic and hadn't even read through the material prior to last nights ''LINN LOUNGE'' event, though I have tried many times to enjoy them.
Last night changed all that and you got to give it to LINN, this is a great concept!
It's easy to be cynical of an English band playing American music but as they express themselves, they are just playing the instruments they like and the music they like ... doing what they enjoy! For me that ''broke the ice'' and dropped my guard so I actually listened to the lyrical content, the musicianship, both individually and as a band, but what really hit me last night was ''wal'', he can really sing, he means it and he's going for it''.
You can kind of guess where this band is going so yip, I 'now' love 'Babel' but I'm super excited to see how they can develop ... bring on the next album!
