The Mumlers

The Mumlers are a group of misfit noisemakers corralled together by songwriter Will Sprott, originally formed in San Jose, CA. In 2008 Galaxia Records released "Thickets & Stitches", their first album. In 2009 they released their second LP "Don’t Throw Me Away", and toured the US with The Black Heart Procession, The Morning Benders and The Submarines. Word spread of their live performances and in 2010 they headlined a sold out show at San Francisco’s Noisepop festival and played the Treasure Island festival alongside Belle & Sebastian, Broken Social Scene, The Sea & Cake, She & Him, and the National. In 2011 they toured with The Dodos, The Tallest Man On Earth, Morcheeba, Two Gallants and He’s My Brother, She’s My Sister. Some other people they played with along the way are Booker T. Jones, Yo La Tengo, Vetiver, The Entrance Band, Kelley Stoltz, Matmos, Papercuts, The Growlers and Clinic as well as underground heroes such as The Legendary Stardust Cowboy & Darondo. The Legendary Stardust Cowboy also played bugle on their first record.
