The similarities end with the vocalist's timbre, imo. I can't tolerate Dave Matthews Band — it's an insta-change for me. This makes me want to fly away, though. Love it.

I agree. They sound like Dave. Though I am not a huge fan of Mr. Matthews, I love Mumford & Sons!

A steader grower this CD. Uplifting folk without being too faux jolly.

All this old people / young people talk here makes me laugh. Good music is good music and the age of the listener doesn't matter.
I've been loving Mumford & Sons ever since Bill and Rebecca started playing it. Yesterday, my daughter, age 20, posted the video for Little Lion Man by Mumford & Sons on Facebook with this comment:
I am madly in love with this band, and most especially with this song. It gives me chills every time. |

There's a quality to the singer's voice that at first made me think this was Passenger. |

I was just writing to a long lost friend who has been off gallivanting creating, selling art world wide. This song joyfully accompanied me to enjoy memories yet more importantly to celebrate life now.
