Super ecstatic to hear of announcement of the Mumford and Sons Calgary to Telluride Tour kicking off in, well, Calgary on May 21st, 2013. Unfortunately, tickets are a touch commodity to come by. 

In the spirit of that, here's a video acoustic guitar lesson from Todd Downing/Youtube.

Lyrics: Whispers in the Dark:

You hold your truth so purely
Well swerve not through the minds of manThis lie is dead

And this cup of yours tastes holyBut a brush with the Devilcan clear your mindAnd strengthen your spine


But fingers tap into what you were onceAnd I'm worried that I blew my only chance

Whispers in the darkSteal a kiss and you'll break your heartPick up your clothes and curl your toesLearn your lesson, lead me home


Spare my sins for the arkI was too slow to departI'm a cad but I'm not a fraudI'd set out to serve the Lord

But my heart was colder when you'd gone

And I lost my head but found the one that I loveUnder the sun, under the sun

But fingers tap into what you were onceAnd I'm worried that I blew my only chanceFingers tap into what you were onceAnd I'm worried that I blew my only chance


But my heart was colder when you'd goneAnd I lost my headLet's live while we are youngWhile we are young, while we are youngWhile we are young

The Gaslight Anthem is going to blow up with “Handwritten” | When You Put It That Way:

"Fans of The Gaslight Anthem know what they’re going to get when the band’s new album comes out next month. Handwritten, which will be released on July 23rd, is going to be an album of 11 straightforward, exciting rock music. They’re the kind of band that isn’t safe to listen to while driving, air guitar and drumming on the steering wheel are about to be the next texting epidemic.

All signs are pointing toward Handwritten being the album that puts The Gaslight Anthem over the edge and totally into the public consciousness. After playing Lollapalooza this summer they’ll travel to Europe to open for the Foo Fighters, probably the biggest band in the world. "
