The Avett Brothers, is a mixture of old-time country, bluegrass, pop melodies, folk, rock n' roll, honky-tonk and ragtime. Listeners to their album, Carolina Jubilee, merely need one spin through the album to realize the breadth and depth of the Avett's music. Over the past year, the trio have made known that half of what makes them great are their live performances, which have proven to entertain and enchant a wide, diverse audience. It's the intensity at which the Avetts pour their angst, heartache and love into each show that has captivated crowds across the country. With upcoming performances at Merlefest, Birchmere and Shakori Hill Grass Roots Festival, you can be sure that the Avett Brothers will continue positively effecting listeners. From the band's web site: "The Avett Brothers have high goals for their music. Beyond selling records, touring endlessly, and winning over new fans, the Avetts hope to continue to create music that will provoke thought, change perceptions and simply bring something new into the world. Starting a little revolution isn't too much to hope for." The organizers of Asheville Earth Day could not agree more! SET TIME: 6:00 PM www.theavettbrothers.com
