Springsteen was headlining Dutch festival Pinkpop and invited the folk mega-sellers up to sing with him during the encore of his 23-song set.

He had earlier performed a career-spanning set, with classics ‘Born To Run’, ‘Because The Night’ and ‘Dancing In The Dark’ aired alongside a selection of new songs from his latest LP ‘Wrecking Ball’.

Mumford And Sons had earlier revealed from the stage at Pinkpop that they are set to release the follow-up to 2009’s ‘Sigh No More’ on September 24.
