Music lovers at theautonomics.com, get ready! British folk-rock band Mumford & Sons have just announced a last-minute free concert in London, happening tonight (March 4). This surprise gig will take place at Flat Iron Square, an intimate 420-capacity venue on Southwark Street, just before the band embarks on their highly anticipated 2025 intimate club tour.
The announcement came directly from frontman Marcus Mumford, who took to the band’s Instagram Stories earlier today with a simple yet exciting message. In the clip, the singer-songwriter, seen running through a field, casually shared, “London – Flat Iron Square at 7PM. Bye!” The venue itself also confirmed the news on their official Instagram account, stating, “We love a secret gig… @mumfordandsons. SEE YOU TONIGHT 7PM 👀.”
