Listening to...

The Avett Brothers, I and Love and You. On repeat. For the last four days straight. If D decides to break up with me after having to listen to this album one. more. time. well, I have to admit that it would be justifiable.

The album is all over the place - bluegrass and folksy stuff and other songs that sound totally modern. Luckily I love all of it.

This is the song that got me...

  9. Great song! i love hearing new music. If you like this you should give a listen to this band from my town called Deertick. I guess they are getting pretty big now so you might know them, sounds like you have good taste.

  10. I live in NC and was really hoping that they would stay a local secret... but I'm SO happy for them to be getting as much attention as they are. They really deserve it. SO talented and SO cute! = ) I do like this album, but their older albums have a LOT more banjo which just makes my heart sing. Definitely check them out too!

  14. So in love with them. I just saw them play live last week and it was like an old fashioned hootinany(sp)!!

    I'm a total sap, and just can't get over "January Wedding." Freakin' adorable.

  23. This album is too overproduced. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the Avett Brothers, but this new album is definitely not as good as their earlier work.

  24. I agree that this album is outstanding. They have really raised their game since The GLeam II album.
