MUMFORD & SONS SHARE VIDEO FOR “GUIDING LIGHT”
THE BAND’S NEW ALBUM DELTA OUT NOVEMBER 16
60-DATE GLOBAL ARENA TOUR ON SALE NOW
17 October 2018 (Toronto, ON) - Mumford & Sons are pleased to share the video for their new single, “Guiding Light”. Directed by Joe Connor (Sam Smith, Coldplay), the video was filmed outside the Tate Modern in London on September 20, when the band performed an impromptu live set aided by a selection of their fans and passers-by alongside the River Thames.
A 100 strong group of fans were selected at random and invited down to London to meet the band. Information provided was scarce; there would be filming involved and fans would need to arrive in good voice. Following brief rehearsals, everyone descended onto the Southbank to film a live performance where the fans took the chorus. A video was made.

“Guiding Light” is the first single to be lifted from Mumford & Sons’ fourth album Delta. Available now for pre-sale, the album is out on November 16, via Gentlemen of the Road/Glassnote Records/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. It was produced by Paul Epworth and recorded at London’s The Church Studios.
Already receiving widespread acclaim, the band recently debuted “Guiding Light” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” with special guests The Roots. Watch the performance HERE.
