I’m been completely captivated by Mumford & Sons this week after discovering them through the excellent 2009 Hype Machine Zeitgeist.  There is so much to love about their music and I am blown away by the excellent banjo melodies behind the hymn-like choruses.

This song is one of my favorites and shows the depth of emotion in their songs.  In many of their lyrics like “Night has always pushed up day / You must know life to see decay” i sense the voice of hope from brokenness that I connect with so well.

You really have to listen to this.  And if anyone wants to go to their show in San Francisco on Feb 11, I could be convinced to fly out there…
