Where is mumford and sons i will wait filmed
Debut single Little Lion Man was crowned Zane Lowe's Hottest Record, followed by album Sigh No More which opened the floodgates to further praise and plaudits, extolling their gospel-tinged lyrics, spine-tingling harmonies and raucous breakdowns. Second album Babel was celebrated by Rolling Stone for being 'more arena-scale than the debut, with the band hollering, hooting, plucking and strumming like Olympian street buskers' and led to landmark gigs at the Hollywood Bowl in front of over 17, delighted fans.
The folk figureheads' set on the Greenpeace stage in saw people in the audience - a stark contrast to when the John Peel stage could not contain the multitudes desperate to see their rapturous performances.
On stage is where they truly come alive and even the most hardened cynic cannot be kept still when the bluegrass melodies and roof-raising banjos kick in. The final night at Worthy Farm is sure to be the hoedown to rule all hoedowns. Glastonbury Sun 30 Jun Pyramid Stage. The Brightest Lights. Jul '13 BBC Two. Jul '13 BBC. I Will Wait. Whispers In The Dark. Winter Winds. White Blank Page. Singing and stamping away from several microphone and kick-drum stations around the stage, Mumford remains a frontman with a gift and enthusiasm for the Chris Martin -esque rousing grand gesture, whether thumping his barrel chest while driving his voice to a reedy rasp during Little Lion Man, or sparking a thousand-smartphone-camera-flash salute at the outset of Believe.
But such flashes of excitement drift further apart in a set encumbered by newer material that is much less abundant in energy or certain of purpose. Delta has found scant favour with critics — and little wonder, considering how truly soporific the likes of The Wild and Picture You prove: windy yet featureless sonic vistas, each mistakenly conflating moody vibes and electronics with gravitas.
I Will Wait subsequently shakes the bleachers with an elephantine outbreak of foot stomping. The good ship Mumford floats on, mighty, yet increasingly adrift on a sea of mediocrity. Featureless sonic vistas … Marcus Mumford.
