Marcus Mumford on his relationship with his wife, actress Carey Mulligan: 'It is one that I found incredibly valuable, the most valuable throughout this whole process, and particularly making the record.'
clip for “Cannibal,” the first music video the filmmaker had ever done? All good, reasonable questions… and all of them burying the lead, as it were., who co-wrote and sings on the new album’s final track, “How,” publicly praised him for his bravery and described the album — “Self-Titled” — as “a trust fall,” something more seemed to be afoot than the very modest amount of courage it might take for a star frontman to go solo.
“So it became really clear that it was a solo album,” she continues, “and some of that felt gender-based to me — like maybe this music required the spiritual collaboration of women in a way that was decidedly not Mumford and Sons. I think that some of the subject matter is handled and absorbed differently by women, maybe, and that sets it apart.
But maybe it wasn’t entirely a joke. ”The cliche in music is the Yoko figure, which I think is really unfair in general, because of course we share everything behind the scenes, and it’s only natural to share my work process with her to an extent.

Division in the band was stirred up when banjo player turned guitarist Winston Marshall got in hot water online by praising right-winger Andy Ngo and inviting Jordan Peterson to meet with him and other band members.

Little did his friend know that the several-years songwriting drought would be broken by songs delving into his deepest and darkest secrets, childhood events he had not even told his parents about. He did start playing a few demos for boldname friends, like Carlile.
Mumford confirms: “I was gonna put it later on the record, and Brandi called me out and was like, ‘Dude, what are you doing? You can’t hide. You can’t bury that song in the middle of a record. You’ve gotta put it first.’ And I knew she was right. I hadn’t made any decisions, but I was obfuscating a little bit and probably a bit anxious about what putting that song out might mean for me.”
“Mercy is exactly what it’s about, and I’ve sat at the feet of Brian Stevenson on that stuff. He’s a public defender who set up the Equal Justice Initiative in Montgomery, Alabama. He mostly represents people on Death Row or lifers without parole and wrote this beautiful book called ‘Just Mercy,’ which I became obsessed with a while ago; a few years ago, they made it into a movie.
