Mumford & Sons is a folk rock band from the United Kingdom that has played in sold out shows around the world since they were formed in 2007.
The group has produced several acclaimed, award-nominated songs including "The Cave," "Little Lion Man," and "I Will Wait." Their 2012 album "Babel" won a Grammy Award in 2013.

Most recently, in January 2024, the band collaborated with Pharrell Williams and released "Good People," a gospel-inspired song they debuted at Paris Fashion Week.
"For me, Greenwich Town Party is a dream come true as it brings together those in our town to have a blast together," said GTP founder Ray Dalio in a news release. "It’s fun and makes our community more community-like. It’s not to be missed."
Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats offers contemporary rock and roll. Since 2015, Rateliff has led his denim-clad, horn-flanked Night Sweats, supplying the zeal of a whiskey-chugging Pentecostal preacher to songs about this world’s shared woes.
The band has opened for The Rolling Stones and has appeared on Saturday Night Live and CMT Crossroads.
Founded in a Nashville dive bar/diner by session players, touring musicians, and friends, The Cameroons combine eclectic instrumentation, relentless rhythms, and rich harmonies to create their brand of energetic Americana.
Drew Angus, who calls Greenwich home, will return to the main stage at the GTP.
With indelible hooks, savvy craftsmanship, and relatable lyrics, his live performances inspire a feeling of connectedness that resonates with audiences and fellow performers alike.
Angus has shared stages with Stevie Nicks, Noah Kahan, Zach Bryan, Pat Benatar, Ann Willson of Heart, and Andrea Bocelli (on "Live with Kelly & Ryan") and has toured with Marc Broussard. He's performed the National Anthem at San Francisco Giants and New York Mets stadiums and appeared on SNL with Jimmy Fallon and Harry Styles.
The GTP Town Stage features local bands whose performances round out the day. Created to celebrate the diverse and abundant talent within the Greenwich community, the Town Stage band application was open to Greenwich residents of all ages, backgrounds and genres.
The 2024 lineup will be announced next month.
All Community and senior tickets for the 2024 event were sold via a lottery over the winter. Tickets are only available to Greenwich residents and those who work in town. All lottery submissions are verified for Greenwich residency or employment.
