It's empty in the valley of your heart

About this song: The Cave

"The Cave" is performed by the band Mumford & Sons, a London folk quartet. The track was first released in 2009, on their Sigh No More album. Its a pounding tale of hope and defiance, starting with gently picked acoustic and this gradually escalates into a huge wall of sound with a myriad of strange and traditional instruments.
