In February 2008, the band completed an extensive UK tour with support from Alessi’s Ark , Sons of Noel and Adrian , Peggy Sue and others. June 2008 marked the band’s first appearance at the Glastonbury Festival . They also toured Australia with Laura Marling, whose disinclination to interact with audiences encouraged Mumford into the spotlight. The experience helped inform his attitude towards Mumford & Sons audiences, which is to interact frequently and to try to create a comfortable, casual atmosphere. Mumford & Sons’ first project was an EP entitled Love Your Ground which took a year to complete and was released in November 2008 on Chess Club Records.
