Hailing from the burgeoning London folk scene that produced Noah and the Whale,
Johnny Flynn and Laura Marling, Mumford & Sons' rootsy twang and acoustic
authenticity charmed indie fans whilst winning approval from folk purists. All

2007 and with their hit 'Little Lion Man' being named Hottest Record in the
World by Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe, Mumford & Sons found themselves success around
the globe.
