Mumford & Sons have their eyes set on the Bay Area.
The London folk-rock outfit — led by vocalist-guitarist Marcus Mumford and featuring bassist Ted Dwane and keyboardist Ben Lovett — is set to perform a two-night stand, June 9-10, at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley.
The band is touring in support of its long-awaited fifth studio album, “Rushmere,” which is the first full-length Mumford & Sons outing since 2018’s “Delta.” (The group did, however, release the live EP, “Delta Tour,” in 2020.)
Both shows are sold out, underscoring that the band hasn’t lost any of its popularity during its time away from the studio. Yet, ducats can still be had on the secondary ticket market (think Stubhub, Ticketmaster, etc.)
