Recorded in the year following the album's U.K release on October 2, 2009, the EP's five tracks include: "Little Lion Man (Live at Triple J)," Thistle & Weeds (Live at VRT/Studio Brussels)," "Sigh No More (BBC live session)," "White Blank Page (WFUV live at MSR Studios)" and "Timshel (BNN/3FM That's Live)."

Sigh No More has gone onto become one of the decade's most enduring releases with over 7 million in sales worldwide, including a 4x Platinum certification the U.S.. The album was also awarded "Album of the Year" the Brit Awards and was nominated for the prestigious Mercury Prize.

Mumford & Sons are Ben Lovett, Marcus Mumford, Ted Dwane and Winston Marshall. In the ten years since their meteoric debut, the Grammy and BRIT Award-winning band has released four full-length albums, including their most recent, 2018's acclaimed Delta. Produced by Paul Epworth, the record debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, Americana/Folk Albums, Alternative Rock Albums and Rock Albums charts-the band's third consecutive #1 debut, the largest sales week for an alternative rock album in 2018 and the sixth-largest debut among all titles last year.

In celebration of the album, the band will continue their "thrilling" (The Washington Post) worldwide Delta Tour this fall including a headline performance at this weekend's Austin City Limits Music Festival as well as upcoming shows at Houston's Toyota Center, Dallas' American Airlines Center and Oklahoma City's Chesapeake Energy Arena.
