Sigh No More is the debut studio album by British folk rock band Mumford & Sons, released in October 2009 via Island Records and Gentlemen of the Road.
Mumford & Sons are an English folk rock band from London, formed in 2007. The band consists of Marcus Mumford (lead vocals, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, drums), Ben Lovett (vocals, keyboard, piano, synthesizer), Winston Marshall (vocals, electric guitar, banjo) and Ted Dwane (vocals, bass guitar, double bass).
The band have won a number of music awards throughout their career, with Sigh No More earning the band the Brit Award for Best British Album in 2011 and six overall Grammy Award nominations. The live performance at the 2011 Grammy ceremony with Bob Dylan and The Avett Brothers led to a surge in popularity for the band in the US. The band received eight total Grammy nominations for Babel and won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. The band also won the Brit Award for Best British Group in 2013.
Working with Grammy Award-winning producer Markus Dravs (Arcade Fire, Coldplay, Björk, Kings of Leon), Sigh No More was recorded at Eastcote Studios in London. At the time, band members did not even own their own instruments—Dravs initially turned them away when they showed up at the recording sessions empty-handed. The band self-financed the recording of the album to avoid the artistic and technical compromises that sometimes befall studio-financed projects. The band signed a licensing deal with Island Records in the UK to distribute their album which was being released on their own independent label Gentlement of the Road.
The first single from the album Little Lion Man was a huge success, reaching #3 on the Singles Charts in Australia, #24 in the UK and #3 on the US Rock Singles charts. This success helped propel the album onto the charts across the world, where it peaked at #2 on the US Billboard 200, #2 on the UK and #1 on the Australian Albums charts. In the US, album sales have exceeded 3 million copies to date.
Upon release the album was a commercial succes, earnign 4x Platinum certification in Australia, 6x Platinum in the US, 5x Platinum in the UK, as well as numerous other certifications elsewhere.
This album is on black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with plain white paper inner sleeve, pressed in Europe via Gentlemen Of The Road.
