I realize this is not a Mumford & Sons related post but, since it’s likely that many Mumford & Sons fans are also Noah and the Whale fans, this is worth sharing.
Please contact info@quest-management.com if you can help or have any information.

Hey love! I was wondering if you could recommend me some Mumfordlike music that is similar to there sound or bands they are closely related to. I've already fell in love with Laura Marling's stuff as well as Johnny Flynn. Do you specifically have any recommendations? I know Marcus offers some on the site but I'd love to hear some of your findings :) Cheers.
Hello there! I must confess that I’ve put off answering this for a while because I’ve gotten so used to those around me thinking that my taste in music is strange. But I know all of you have terrific taste in music so I’m not concerned.
Mumford & Sons sound unique to me, so I can’t necessarily suggest any music that is “Mumfordlike” in that sense, but I can simply suggest some of the artists that I like and are currently on heavy rotation in my library; you’ll probably know some of them. Here they are in no particular order, and I’ve conveniently linked you to a YouTube video for each:
- Ben Howard
- Of Monsters and Men
- First Aid Kit
- Bon Iver
- Fleet Foxes
- Noah and the Whale
- Bear’s Den (you’ll recognize a couple of people in this video)
- The Apache Relay
- Gotye
- Band of Horses
- Dawes
- Fun.
- Gillian Welch
- Nathaniel Rateliff
- Young the Giant
- Arcade Fire
- Marcus Foster
- Michael Kiwanuka
- The Civil Wars
- The Head and the Heart
So there you go! I listen to so much music—I mean a lot of music—so this really is just a sampling. I hope you find some artists you like!

Biffy Clyro are to headline this year’s Rock Ness festival on the banks of the famous Highland loch June 8-10, 2012…
…Festival director Jim King is delighted with the line-up and cannot wait for the first tent peg to hit the ground… ”Mumford And Sons. Wow. I am over the moon they agreed to play our show. They could have played anywhere but they chose The Highlands. It’s going to be special…”
