The more I listen to Mumford & Sons' debut album Sigh No More, the more addicted to it I become. It is full of infectious melodies, raucous refrains, and inescapable crescendos and decrescendos. After seeing them at Webster Hall in New York I was completely sold. Seeing them at Bonnaroo turned that sale into obsession - I'll seek this band out whenever they play in my area. As I wandered around That Tent, marveling at the huge crowd and the depth of Mumford & Sons' sound, I was thrilled to see them joined by Bonnaroo locals Old Crow Medicine Show. It was an awesome pairing, particularly on Old Crow's signature take on "Wagonwheel" - both groups have a lush sound that, when combined, was completely brilliant.
