The Avett Brothers
Infectious American folk-rock
Why see The Avett Brothers?
Bluegrass Icons
The Avett Brothers are a non-traditional bluegrass band that originated in the early 2000s in Concord, North Carolina. Two brothers, Seth and Scott Avett, formed the group after the breakup of the former rock band, Nemo, adding two new members - Bob Crawford on double bass and Joe Kwon on cello. The bad.
Their sound is a refreshingly eclectic blend of traditional instruments - banjos, cello, double bass, and piano to name the most frequently heard sounds - played by true musicians with open and honest lyrics written from the heart. The Avett Brothers have managed to find their fit in between bluegrass and folk-rock genres, a place that makes them as at home at a small music festival as they are on an urban concert stage. Of their eight studio albums, the latest two have gained the band the highest positions on Billboard Charts in the US - with 2012's The Carpenter reaching Number Four and its 2013 follow-up, Magpie and the Dandelion, reaching Number Five.

GREAT show!
First time seeing the Avett Brothers. It won’t be the last. They’re supremely talented and play a great variety of musical styles, from rock to bluegrass. They’re harmonies are exquisite! Both their music and lyrics are memorable and meaningful. Saw them in Philly at the Mann. Great venue. Can’t wait to see them again. ... Read more

If you don't know this band and their music you're really missing out.
I've seen this band a number of times and have never been disappointed. Bands like Mumford & Sons and the Lumineers have gotten inspiration from their music. They are a hard working band and very prolific. Their lyrics are about family, friends, love, heartbreak and forgiveness. Their music has such range and diversity from rock, in songs Vanity, Geraldine, Pretty girl from Chile, to knee slapping Laundry room and Sally's Lover, and tender love on "I wish I was", they are awesome. As an Avett primer watch "May it Last" on HBO directed by Judd Apatow. Scott and Seth Avett founded the band & added big bad Bob Crawford on standup bass and wild & free cellist Joe Kwon to make for a tight band with plenty to say and play. Any chance you can go see them , do not miss them in concert! ... Read more
