Mumford And Sons Bring Stampede To Austin

British folk rockers Mumford and Sons brought their unique sound of music to Austin’s newest venue, the Austin360 Amphitheater at the Circuit of the Americas racetrack for two shows on June 8 and 9, 2013.



The band consists of Marcus Mumford (lead vocals, guitar, drums, mandolin), Ben Lovett (vocals, keyboards, accordion, drums), Winston Marshall (vocals, banjo, guitar, resonator guitar), and Ted Dwane (vocals, string bass, drums, guitar).




The Grammy award-winning quartet performed to sold-out audiences of approximately 14,000 music fans on both nights. The two-night stop was part of the bands Summer Stampede Tour. Enthusiastic fans that filled the outdoor venue were treated to almost two hours of fantastic music. One highlight of the show was a two song acoustic encore which included a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire” during the amazed crowd was completely silent.




Opening for Mumford And Sons on this night were Mystery Jets and Michael Kiwanuka.
