The podcast discusses the band Mumford and Sons, specifically their album "Babel" and their use of bluegrass music. The band incorporates various instruments like banjo, cello, and keyboards into their music. The podcast also mentions the band's success, their Christian-based lyrics, and their impact on the modern music industry. Overall, the podcast expresses appreciation for Mumford and Sons and their contribution to the popularity of bluegrass music. So this video is off the top of my head, so bear with me, um, I don't have a script or anything formatted for this podcast, but I am just gonna wing it, so hopefully it's good and hopefully you'll like it because I am trying my very best, but the podcast, the bluegrass podcast that I have chosen to talk about on today's podcast is Babel by Mumford and Sons. So, this is personally one of my favorite bands, um, specifically for bluegrass. Um, they, in this album, they have over ten songs, um, they have Babel, Holland Road, Lover's Eyes, Whispers in the Dark, Ghosts That We Know, Reminder, I Will Wait, Lover of the Light, Hopeless Wanderer, Broken Crown, Below My Feet, Not With Haste, For Those Below, The Boxer, and Where Are You Now. Um, I Will Wait is personally one of my favorite songs, it is, I will wait, um, that was really bad, I'm so sorry, I just did that, but, um, they, Mumford and Sons uses a lot, they are actually considered modern day, um, bluegrass, they use a lot of, um, strings such as the banjo, cello, they use some keyboards, electric guitars, um, they have a lot of different songs such as the Lion Man, um, which I just watched the music video for that, and you saw all different types of instruments they were using, however, that song is not in this album, um, I'm actually not sure what song that album is a part of, um, but, I'm sorry, I had to take a quick pause, but, um, oh my gosh, I still have eight minutes, but, um, let's talk a little bit about the album. So, all of the songs kind of have their similarities and differences, um, all of the songs are similar, because obviously they use the same type of instruments, um, and I really appreciate the fact that they are bringing the banjo back, because we have learned about the banjo in the music class, and the banjo was introduced year, like, years and years ago, like early 19th century, um, and it has become more, it is a part of the bluegrass, um, genre of music, but it has become, I feel, in my opinion, it has become more of a instrument that is being applied to modern day music, such as Mumford & Sons, and I really appreciate the fact that Mumford & Sons uses, um, this really unique instrument to, um, apply to their music, and it just makes me happy to, um, you know, hear them, and hear that instrument, and another surprising thing is the cello. I mean, you hear a lot of the cello being played in the classical music pieces, such as, like, Beethoven, and, um, uh, whoever, the other classical artists, um, you don't really hear that a lot in modern day music, so when I saw the video for A Little Lion Man, and, uh, Babel, I was like, oh my goodness, like, they have the cello, and they had, they do have some keyboard players, which I know that really isn't considered strings, but I do believe, correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe that the keyboards are considered a bluegrass, um, piece, instrument piece, um, so I really, I just really like this genre of music, specifically for the type of instruments that are being used, because, you know, you hear modern music now, and it's, like, drums, and, like, you know, um, voice editing, and, like, uh, you know, maybe some electric guitar, and it's just more of, like, just beats, like, you know, DJ beats, like on a DJ booth. It's not really, like, true instruments, so when I heard this and saw the video, I was like, I really appreciate this genre of music, and especially this band, um, so, yeah, like I was referring back to their songs, I feel like a lot of their songs do have, do sound the same with, um, the way their music flows. Obviously, every song has a little bit of a different, like, um, beat to it, but I do feel they use, obviously, the same instruments, um, and Babel is, I mean, all of their albums are great, don't get me wrong, but specifically talking about Babel, they do have, um, a vast majority of really great songs, and again, I Will Wait is one of my top favorites, like, not even, like, just for the bluegrass, but in general is one of my favorite songs. Um, so I will be talking now more about Mumford and Sons, and, uh, and the album. Alright, so Mumford and Sons, a folk rock band from London, Germany, sorry, from London, has won Grammy awards and headlined major music festivals, captivate audiences with their unique blend of old and new sounds, such as folk music and bluegrass music. With their passionate live shows and heartfelt lyrics, Mumford and Sons has inspired a generation of folk and rock musicians, leaving a lasting impact on the modern music industry. Isn't that something to be very proud of? Additionally, another very, very, um, unique thing I like about Mumford and Sons is they are a very Christian-based band. They, a lot of, they pose a lot of their lyrics after Christianity, and a lot of, um, their themes of their songs are also related to Christianity. So I really like that, as I am a Catholic, um, and I really respect my religion and the religious community. A little fun fact about the song I Will Wait in their Babel album that I had just researched is that the song I Will Wait was their showcasing song that was kind of Mumford and Sons' breakthrough. The song, um, the song I Will Wait, which again is in their Babel album, um, was the uplifting and anthemic song which became a fan favorite and helped propel the band to global success. So this song was, is a little bit of an older song, but it did boost their success and their fame, which then led them to win multiple Grammy awards, um, and really boosted their confidence to continue to make songs just like that, if not better. So I really, I really like that for them. Another very interesting fact is the band's sound has evolved over the years. So Mumford and Sons have experimented with different music styles, um, however they're incorporating, they have been incorporating more electric elements into their recent albums, um, however I personally like the more bluegrass, uh, type of music because it's, it's like they're bringing out the past and they're bringing out the old, you know, fills, banjo, and I, again, I, I mean, I like all their albums, I like all their music, granted, regardless of their, um, electrical music, but I personally like, you know, before the electrical instruments came in, when it was just like the, uh, banjo, cello, violin, guitar, um, I guess electric, electric guitar was a part of their Babel album, but regardless, I still like the style of music that they have incorporated, and I think they, again, are very modern type of, um, bluegrass, and I feel more people are, you know, becoming familiar with bluegrass due to, um, Mumford and Sons and another, you know, other, other bands that are doing this is the Abbott Brothers, Dolly Parton and her older music was doing a lot of bluegrass, um, there's like a lot, there's Willie Nelson who did it, who was incorporating bluegrass, there are a lot of bands that have unfortunately died down, but Mumford and Sons are currently still, are currently making their way up on the bluegrass charts, and, um, they have really made a big impact on, um, you know, not just me, but everyone who is, you know, unfamiliar with bluegrass, like I was when I first, um, when I first learned about, uh, you know, Mumford and Sons, I did not know they're bluegrass until, you know, I started doing bluegrass, um, research, and I found out that Mumford and Sons and other bands and singers that I wasn't sure of, they are bluegrass too, and I was like, that's surprising, a lot of these bands are incorporating more bluegrass into their songs, and I really, really appreciate this unique type of music, it's really heartwarming, it's really, it's just very unique, and it's not, you know, something you hear these days. Additionally, one last little piece about their Little Lion Man song, it, that song became a breakout hit. The powerful and introspective track resonated with listeners, propelling the band into the mainstream music scene, again, which brought out listeners into the bluegrass genre. This song and I Will Wait and Babel, and these other songs, really brought listeners to what bluegrass is, and what became, what gave bluegrass its popularity throughout the years. On a ending note, on a, or I guess I should say a high note of this podcast, Mumford and Sons has sold millions of albums worldwide. They have achieved significant commercial success, resonating with music lovers across the globe, which makes me so ecstatic that bluegrass is becoming more of a popular genre of music, and hopefully it continues throughout the 21st century, the 22nd century, and so on, and more people will, even this century, will continue to listen to bluegrass, and hopefully more artists will make bluegrass a more popular music of genre, or genre of music, and bluegrass is on the rise, and I'm so very happy to see bluegrass being incorporated into more songs and artists these, in the modern year, and I am really appreciative that I was able to learn more about Mumford and Sons, because as far as I knew before this, I only knew a couple of their songs, so I am super glad to have read more about them, and so glad they are Christian based, and they are bringing out the popularity of bluegrass, and we all just love Mumford and Sons, and they always have a special place in my heart. So, this is the end of my podcast. Please come back for more. Thank you!
