The banjo totting, tweed waistcoat wearing, double bass ringing exploits of UK quartet Mumford & Sons are soon to be exploring PA systems around the US with a coast to coast tour in support of their storming debut LP Sigh No More.

The band's rootsy sound coupled with a 21st century spin has been creating grins around the globe. Fans of Crosby, Stills & Nash and the stadium sinking melodies of Kings Of Leon will find solace in the bands debut, and with a storming live performance they are not ones to disappoint.

The tour, which is being opened by Middle East, is starting off in Montreal on May 13th, followed by a string of performances across the country, including Sasquatch and Bonnaroo, finally finishing up in Kansas in June.

So while you're raiding your grandparents' closet for some tweed and dusting off that banjo that's been needing re-strung for a decade, check out down below for a listen to the group putting their own spin on the Vampire Weekend single, "Cousins."
