Mumford & Sons Explain 'Johannesburg' EP With African Musicians

Mumford & Sons are going to Graceland, sorta. As Paul Simon's 1986 album was inspired by and made with the sounds of South Africa, the English band's new collaborative EP, Johannesburg, was recently created in two days in South Africa, between tour stops.

The five-song release, Entertainment Weekly writes, comes from the folksters-turned-rockers and "Afro-Western dance/hip-hop outfit The Very Best, Senegalese superstar Baaba Maal, and Cape Town pop group Beatenberg."
