Avett Brothers Lexington Release ____________________________________________________________________________________ THE AVETT BROTHERS ANNOUNCE SHOW AT RUPP ARENA ON NOVEMBER 23 TICKETS WILL GO ON-SALE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13TH AT 10AM The Avett Brothers begin another new era of folk with their seventh full-length album, and first for American Recordings/Republic Records, The Carpenter. Produced by the legendary Rick Rubin and recorded in North Carolina and Malibu, it's an artful distillation of classic homegrown folk, rock energy, bluegrass soul and pop charm. In 2009, the group made mainstream waves with their lauded major label debut, I and Love and You. It landed at #16 on the Billboard Top 200 and garnered unanimous critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, Paste, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and Time, who even dubbed it one of Top 10 albums of the year. In addition to touring tirelessly, they gave memorable performances on the Late Show with David Letterman, the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon as well as during a feature spot on the PBS series Austin City Limits. In 2001, banjoist Scott Avett and guitarist Seth Avett formed The Avett Brothers with standup bass player Bob Crawford. Growing up in Concord, NC, the boys immersed themselves in their musician dad's record collection, falling in love with Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Crosby, Stills & Nash. Since then, they've become genre stalwarts over the course of six albums, including 2007's acclaimed Emotionalism. However, The Carpenter is the group's richest and most rewarding record yet. The next chapter for The Avett Brothers has commenced. People Magazine - “An album that achieves rootsy bliss…” - Rolling Stone Magazine - “It’s the sound of a band pushing past an old identity and toward something bigger.” - USA Today - “They’ve constructed a near masterpiece…” - New York Post - “This North Carolina blue grass-pop sibling act is like Mumford & Sons with actual mountain credibility.” -Billboard Magazine- “Scott and Seth Avett harmonize brightly over a rollicking honky-tonk groove.” - Entertainment Weekly Magazine - “The North Carolina siblings deliver another gorgeously crafted set of sad and soulful laments laced with acoustic guitars, sharply punctuated piano, and delicate cello.” - Performing Songwriter Magazine - “There’s no shortage of catchy, bopping crowd pleasers on The Carpenter, and the Avett’s churn them out with gusto and pride.” - Paste Magazine - “It’s this penchant for playing with contrast…that shines on The Carpenter, perhaps stronger than on any of their previous releases.“ - Rhapsody - “These hard-touring alt-folk sensations are in fine, appropriately workmanlike form on The Carpenter.” - Popmatters - “The Carpenter is strong from top to bottom.” An Evening With THE AVETT BROTHERS RUPP ARENA – LEXINGTON, KY SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23 | 8:00 PM TICKETS ON-SALE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13TH AT 10AM! Ticket Locations The Lexington Center Ticket Office, Ticketmaster.com or by phone at 233-3535 or 800-745-3000 Ticket Prices $49.75 GA floor / $42.75 & $35 reserved (plus applicable fees) More Info: theavettbrothers.com | rupparena.com | nationalshows2.com.

  • Can Milwaukee Festivals Compete?
    Arts and Entertainment Summer 2010 _________________ Donna the Buffalo’s Tara Nevins, left, and Woody Platt of Steep Canyon Rangers, both have played in Milwaukee, but are local festivals too big to showcase quality? Photos by Geoff Davidian Smaller venues offer sober, cleaner, family-friendly chance to see popular acts By GEOFF DAVIDIAN ILKESBORO, North Carolina – It was Sunday morning and Dan Fedoryka looked every bit a Baptist preacher in his white suit as he stepped out of the Church Bus, walked a hundred or so yards over a worn path and mounted the raised platform where he would perform a ritual that has become familiar in this Appalachian community. The sun was shining and it was already in the 80s when the 30-year-old former student at a Ukrainian seminary slipped off his jacket, folded it and placed it neatly on the back of a chair, rolled up his sleeves and turned to the energetic congregation. Then Fedoryka strapped on his guitar and jumped over some speakers to join his brother Alexander, childhood friend Josef Crosby and Mike Ounallah as the band Scythian jumped right into its third performance in two days at MerleFest, the annual gathering in Wilkesboro, NC, to worship and be baptized in quintessential American music. MerleFest began 22 years ago as a celebration of traditional American folk and bluegrass music but after more than two decades, it has opened its arms to a broader slice of regional and national talent. The event, dedicated to the memory of Eddy Merle Watson and to raise money for the Wilkes Community College, was held this year from April 28 to May 1 on the college campus.

  • The Avett Brothers Farm
    Avett family home a storehouse for memories Published in Yes! Weekly July 23,2008 by Carole Perkins An antiquated yellow lab and a frisky Doberman Pincher are vociferous escorts to the front steps of the modest, wooden house secured a towering brick chimney standing sentinel where Jim and Susie Avett, parents of Scott and Seth. Their living room is an humble assortment of the lares and penants of Jim and Susie’s forty years together .Scott’s oil portraits of he and his wife adorn the wall perpendicular to bookshelf lined with Jim’s collection of vintage tomes. The 1930’s upright piano where the Avett children practiced piano lessons, anchors the room, its high shelf supporting framed photographs of weddings and grandchildren. A black woodstove squats catty-cornered, the backdrop for the “shows” that Scott, Seth and their older sister Bonnie, rehearsed in their bedrooms and performed to their parents delight in the halcyon days of their childhood. Jim Avett, a gifted singer /songwriter himself and loquacious doyen to the Avett clan, holds court in a chair in the middle of the room. "Our house is a reflection of what's important to u," Jim says. "It was always important not to stifle the children's creativity, which we may have overdone," referring to walls sketched with portraits and song lyrics like hieroglyphics on primitive caves. Jim removes Seth's hand-drawn portrait of the family from the wall, showing all five family members smiling with their arms around each other. It is inscribed in Seth's childish handwriting as "the best family in the world." "Family is the only thing that lasts over the years and it should be the first," Jim says."Strong family ties are the best thing a parent can give to a child.

  • Every Once in a While in Life, You Stumble Upon Something That Grabs You, Shakes You, Touches You Deep Inside
    Every once in a while in life, you stumble upon something that grabs you, shakes you, touches you deep inside. And even in the moment, before it can fully sink in, you realize you have found that rarest of commodities in this airbrushed world of fakery and frauds: authenticity. It was the summer of 2007 when I experienced just such an epiphany while browsing through one of those slightly anachronistic hippie shops in San Francisco’s Haight Ashbury district. From the ceiling speakers above me it came, a sound at once raw and utterly beautiful. A sound I can describe only as pure, unadulterated joy. “My God, who are these guys?” I asked aloud, and the clerk held up a CD jacket. The song was “Die, Die, Die.” The album was Emotionalism. The band was The Avett Brothers. I nearly ran from the store and did not stop until I had a copy of my own. It was love at first listen. The clarion voices, the rapturous harmonies and engaging melodies; the organic sound of real instruments, acoustic instruments, pure and unpolluted by electronics. Real musicians playing real music. And those lyrics. Lord, those lyrics -- pure poetry. Raised on Dylan and schooled in Guthrie, I had begun to believe the best days of authentic American roots music was behind us. I was wrong. Turns out it was simply incubating in two brothers growing up in the piedmont of North Carolina, playing and singing music together, developing a seamless chemistry unique to brothers. Their grandfather, Clegg Avett, was a country minister, and from him they learned that souls are won not by preaching but by storytelling, by reaching inside the human heart to find universal truths.
