Mumford & Sons will be supporting their upcoming studio album Delta in a big way. The British folk-rock band just announced a massive worldwide tour that will include 60 dates across Europe, North America, and Australia. According to the press release, Delta Tour, which will be the band’s biggest tour yet, will “celebrate the folk-rock band’s new album” and “feature a revolutionary in-the-round stage design.”

The tour kicks off with a show in Dublin on November 16th and will wrap up on May 21 in Stockholm. During the Delta Tour, Mumford & Sons will also have supporting acts on selected dates. America singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers will be the band’s special guest on shows in Philadelphia, Boston, New York, Washington, and Toronto while talented English soul musician Michael Kiwanuka will join the group during their Australian leg of the tour. The full list of dates can be found here.

Delta, which is Mumford & Sons’ fourth studio album, will be released on 16 November 2018. The record was produced by Paul Epworth and will see the band taking a different approach compared to their previous works by incorporating elements of electronica, rap, and jazz.

The band already presented the lead single from the album “Guiding Light,” in September and the track gives us a good insight into the sound of Delta. You can check it out below.
