“Rushmere” by Mumford & Sons

The title track of RUSHMERE arrived with the album on March 28, 2025, through Island and Glassnote: Mumford & Sons' fifth record and their first in nearly seven years, their longest wait yet. It was also their first without Winston Marshall, who left in 2021, so this is the band as a trio, and the name points back home. Rushmere is the pond on Wimbledon Common in London where Marcus Mumford, Ted Dwane and Ben Lovett first became friends.

Dave Cobb produced it with the band and Tom Elmhirst mixed. Mumford sings lead and plays acoustic guitar, electric guitar and banjo, with Matt Menefee adding more banjo; Dwane plays bass and guitar, Lovett organ and piano, and Derrek Phillips drums, while Matt Doe and Kyle Resnick on trumpet and Ben Lanz on trombone bring the brass. Natalie Hemby and Greg Kurstin share the writing credit with the three.
