Hilariously, the actors offer a dramatic lip-synced performance of "Hopeless Wanderer," and one scene even includes all four men squeezed onto a small boat with their instruments.Ĭonsequently, the parodied music video has gone viral online. In the clip, the four actors imitate the members of Mumford & Sons donning facial hair, banjos, guitars, and disheveled, old-fashioned clothes that are staples of the band's look. "Hopeless Wanderer" features guest appearances by "Arrested Development" actor Jason Bateman, "The Hangover's" Ed Helms, and "Saturday Night Live" stars Jason Sudeikis and Will Forte. However, this week, the Grammy Award-winning British band added star power to their own lineup in their newest music video. We properly enjoyed getting to see Queens of the Stone Age on Friday and it was just a quality weekend overall.Mumford & Sons' new music video for "Hopeless Wanderer" got a helping hand from some of today's biggest stars in comedy.īest known for their hit songs such as "I Will Wait" and "Lover of the Light," Mumford & Sons consists of bassist Ted Dwane, vocalist Marcus Mumford, musician Ben Lovett, and guitarist Winston Marshall. It was so enthusiastic and we are really really grateful. That was easily the biggest crowd we’ve ever played to in America. I think he’s trying to head bang slightly less but he’s been enjoying the shows just as much. Absolutely brilliant, fully all clear and fighting fit.

I think that moment was a reminder for all of us that first and foremost we’re really good mates and we’ve got families and we’ve got our health to look after and being in a band and touring is fun and everything but nothing matters as much as just being alive and having our families.ġ00 percent. I think it was a reminder that nothing really mattered. Yeah, I think there’s probably an extra element of how grateful we are that we can keep doing it does feel a bit different, a bit more special. So we’re kind of going straight at it and not holding back at all.ĭoes it feel extra special now because Ted is back?

We are starting the full English tour in two weeks and that’s gonna be the end of touring for a bit at the end of that next round of dates. Smashing the glass, obviously a regular occurrence.Īnd how is the tour going? What’s it like to be on the road again? So that part of the video made a lot of sense. We normally just go down to a good old pub and throw beer around and sing songs together. I didn’t know that there was another level to it.ĭid it hit close to home, the images of you guys in the pub drinking? I think he was literally trying to imply that we make out. Sam told me he wanted to poke fun of the camaraderie or bromance that you see in videos like Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child ‘O Mine” when the band is on the road together all the time and hanging out. I think we just gotta accept that bromance is there and sometimes guys just gotta kiss, you know? To be fair it does fairly reflect what goes on in Mumford & Sons. That was definitely kind of a wow moment. What did you think when you saw the kiss? And it showed why they’re so good at their jobs. So it made a lot more sense to put other people on the screen who are very watchable and much more qualified than us. We can’t stand having our photo taken or doing a video because that’s not why we’re musicians. We’ve never ever ever liked any of our music videos. I think having fun with it is probably the only way forward. Music videos are ridiculous things that bands do for their music, trying to get it right. And it felt pretty important to remind people that most of the time we’re just goofing around. We do our music that we care about and it is from an earnest place but you know we don’t just sort of sit around in basements with the curtains closed crying about things that inspired songs in the first place. Anyone who has spent some time with us knows that we really don’t take ourselves that seriously. Well, we do that shit all the time though. People seemed surprised that you were poking fun at yourselves so much. We got to spend time with him in the past since we met at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival a couple of years ago and kind have become familiar with his talents. I think Ed had perhaps the most fun because he’s obviously a very talented musician in his own right as a pianist and a banjo player. I’m pretty sure my mom still thinks it’s me in the video. When Ed Helms is pushing the piano down the hill our first inclination that the video is getting a little more ridiculous. It was a while ago now actually because we cut it a couple of months ago. Were you guys all together when you saw it?
