First heard this husky soulful Brit voice while listening to A Prairie Home Companion, but soon discovered that he was one of a handful of musicians covering Dylan songs...

Whoops, couldn't embed! So how to fetch videos from youtube?

I did share these on twitter if I can get the link on here:

Okay! Happy you found The New Basement Tapes re 'found' Dylan lyrics which he'd never set to music, himself. But here's the one of Marcus performing for A Prairie Home Companion audience that I heard a couple of weeks ago. So happens it was a rebroadcast. I'd missed the original.

I described his voice as 'soulful and husky' but that's really off! It's more difficult to pinpoint the effect the sound of his voice had on me. Soulful is okay I guess, but Adele tells it best in an interview she gave some years ago when she was talking about her desire to collaborate with other musicians in future projects: Marcus Mumford’s voice goes straight through me...
