BBC Radio 2 - Marcus Mumford, Wilder Mind

Marcus Mumford from Mumford & Sons plays the music that shaped his life.

Marcus Mumford from Mumford & Sons plays the music that shaped his life. This week, it's music that helped inspire their third studio album, Wilder Mind.

Mumford & Sons' 2015 album Wilder Mind saw the band evolve from their signature folk rock sound to encompass more electric instruments and a harder edge. In this show, Marcus plays some of the songs that he was listening to during the writing and recording of that album - from Dion, Otis Redding and Willie Nelson to Blake Mills, Bon Iver and Arctic Monkeys.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
