RUSHMORE, which is available to pre-order and pre-save here, follows Mumford & Son's 2009 debut, Sigh No More, plus Babel (2012), Wilder Mind (2015) and Delta (2018).

It also marks the first studio effort from the band as a trio after the departure of Winston Marshall, who left the band due to his personal views on being censored after facing praising a book by right-wing US journalist Andy Ngo on Twitter.

Despite the seven year wait, the band haven't been completely dormant. Last year saw them release the single Good People, which featured a collaboration with Pharrell Williams.

Meanwhile, frontman Marcus Mumford released his solo album Self-Titled in 2022, which included the lead single Better Off High.
