Avett Brothers
Since Scott and Seth Avett traded in the shredding indie rock sound of their first band, Nemo, for the front porch bluegrass vibe of the Avett Brothers nearly a decade ago, the North Carolina trio (Scott on banjo/vocals, Seth on guitar/vocals and stand-up bassist Bob Crawford) has come to define the DIY ethic.
The Avetts recorded and released their own albums (10 full lengths and EPs over the past 10 years, including 2007’s acclaimed “Emotionalism”), booked their own tours and negotiated their first label deal with tiny Ramseur Records 5 years ago.
The Avett Brothers altered their formula somewhat when they signed with Columbia, but not because of their newly established major label status. In fact, the trio already had close to 30 songs written before meeting with legendary producer Rick Rubin, who eventually helmed the sessions that resulted in their amazing new album, “I and Love and You.”
