Mumford & Sons Extend "Full English" Tour; Bassist Ted Dwane Is Making 'Steady Recovery'

Mumford & Sons have extended their Full English tour.

The band have announced a string of new North American tour dates and rescheduled the shows which they had to postpone recently due to bassist Ted Dwane requiring surgery, who suffered a blood clot on the surface of his brain.

In a statement released on their website, the band also mention that Dwane is making a steady recovery from his operation.

Read what the band had to say and check out the revised tour routing below.

"Firstly, we are pleased to report that our beloved Ted is making a steady recovery from his operation and wearing his newly acquired shaven-headed hairstyle with enviable levels of suave. A huge, huge thank you to all for your messages of support; the man himself is rather overwhelmed.

Secondly, on a related note, we can now confirm details of the rescheduled dates for the recently canceled US shows – see below for further details.

And thirdly - wildcard - we are thrilled to inform you that the, all-be-it-abrupt, ending of the recent run of shows marks the closing of but one chapter in the book of ‘Mumford & Sons North American Tour Travels 2013’. ‘The Full English’ North American tour, featuring Bear’s Den and The Vaccines too, will commence on 26th August in Toronto and take in the following places.
