(Self-Titled)

Produced by Blake Mills (Alabama Shakes, Perfume Genius, Laura Marling) and mainly recorded at Sound City in Los Angeles, (self-titled) emerged from an exacting songwriting process that found Mumford poring over every line to eliminate any obscuring of the truth. But while the album bears all the raw emotion of a bedroom recording, its sonic landscape is vast and exquisitely detailed, unfolding in wildly unpredictable textures and tones.

Not only a testament to his potent chemistry with Mills, the mesmerizing depth of (self-titled) has much to do with the line-up of female musicians Mumford enlisted as featured vocalists and/or co-writers, including Brandi Carlile, Phoebe Bridgers, Clairo, Monica Martin, and Julia Michaels. To that end, Mumford refers to (self-titled) as the most collaborative work he's ever created and considers each artist essential in shaping its expansive musicality.
