Coldplay, Mumford & Sons Producer Receives Brit Award

Mumford & Sons producer Markus Dravs has been presented with an early Brit award by Coldplay singer Chris Martin.

The producer, who is currently working on Coldplay's anticipated new album, was awarded producer of the year ahead of the Brit Awards next week.

Dravs was nominated for his work on Mumford & Sons' 'Sigh No More' and Arcade Fire's 'The Suburbs'.

Speaking about his work on the Mumford & Sons' album Drays told BBC 6 Music: "I was moved by the spirituality. You could hear it in the lyrics and in the commitment in the demos, so much that I really wanted to get involved and see if I could help make the record."

Meanwhile, Mumford & Sons and Adele will also join previously announced acts Take That, Plan B and Tinie Tempah at the ceremony at London's O2 Arena on February 15.
