This week's famous face from Orange County is Marcus Mumford of Mumford and Sons of Yorba Linda, CA. Here's what Wikipedia has to say about him:

Marcus was born on January 31, 1987, in Yorba Linda, California to British parents.[1] His family moved back to their native England when Marcus was six months old.[1] He grew up on Chatsworth Avenue in Wimbledon Chase and attended King's College School in Wimbledon where he met fellow band member Ben Lovett.[2] He returned to London to focus on his music career after his first year of study at the University of Edinburgh. It was in Edinburgh that he penned most of Mumford & Sons' debut album, Sigh No More. He began his musical career playing drums for Laura Marling on tour, along with the other current members of Mumford & Sons. It was through touring with Marling and gaining experience playing important gigs, as well as experimenting with his early writing that they decided to set up the band in 2007.[3]
