At the 54th Grammy Awards, Mumford & Sons revealed, “We’ve been fortunate to work with some great directors but we’ve never really enjoyed being in videos. Talking to Idris and Dan (Cadan, scriptwriter) about making a video that we’re not in made it a lot more fun.
“They wrote the treatment after our ale-infused conversation in a pub in London. What they directed we are proud to present.”
