#101 Elvis Costello and Mumford & Sons – The Ghost of Tom Joad

We were all shocked to hear Mumford & Sons double bass player Ted Dwane has been hospitalised with a blood clot on his brain. The announcement came hours after this video of Mumford & Sons playing the Bruce Springsteen classic ‘The Ghost Of Tom Joad’ with Elvis Costello hit on the net. Recorded for the ONE Campaign‘s agit8 series, which invited modern musicians to perform their favourite protest songs, it’s a striking rendition of Springsteen’s anthem for the disenfranchised. It’s also a great opportunity to see Ted doing what he does best. Get well soon Ted!
