The Avett Brothers have a very special style which is mainly composed of their unique singing style and the instruments guitar, a banjo, a violoncello (played in a standing position) and a double bass. Sometimes they sound a bit like the early Beatles, mixed with some Punk and some singer\/songwriter elements like Bob Dylan.<\/p>\n<p>The latest CD has also been released in Germany &#8211; I am curious if the Avett Brothers bill be successful in Germany too and if they will make a German tour some time. Some songs might please the Germans, but in general I think the Avett Brothers are a little bit too special for a real big success in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>Here is my special selection of the songs and videos by the Avett Brothers that I like most:<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"watch-headline-title\">Avett Brothers &#8211; Murder in the City<\/h2>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Avett Brothers - Murder in the City  - FIRST TIME EVER PLAYED!!!!!\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MpmdaVZx-5I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"watch-headline-title\">The Avett Brothers &#8211; January Wedding LIVE<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>4\/16\/10, Outdoor Theatre Stage, Coachella 2010.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Avett Brothers - January Wedding LIVE\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0RyrlKlBPwU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>Playlist with more videos by the Avett Brothers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Avett Brothers\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PL57D0E9F4935484BD\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>The Avett Brothers In Concert: Newport Folk Festival 2010<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>Seth and Scott Avett&#8217;s accessible mix of bluegrass, rock and folk has helped make rising roots-music stars of the photogenic North Carolina brothers, but the real draw is the pair&#8217;s rich, frenetic live shows with bassist Bob Crawford. As The Avett Brothers&#8217; incessant touring takes the band through a laundry list of 2010&#8217;s summer festivals \u2014 click here for a dynamite show from Bonnaroo back in June \u2014 mega-stardom seems tantalizingly within reach. Last year&#8217;s <em>I and Love and You<\/em> is a real sleeper; an album with a lot to say about human behavior, big-hearted devotion and the desire to achieve simple goodness. Here, the band performs live at the Newport Folk Festival in Newport, R.I.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.npr.org\/templates\/story\/story.php?storyId=128723033\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.npr.org\/templates\/story\/story.php?storyId=128723033<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Additional information<\/h2>\n<p>Website of the Avett Brothers: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theavettbrothers.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.theavettbrothers.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have first heard the Avett Brothers in a recording from the Merlefest 2008, and I liked their music very much.
