Spend Saturday evening with The Avett Brothers at Rupp

November 21, 2013

Let’s get folked up!
The Avett Brothers are coming to Rupp Arena this Saturday, Nov. 23. The concert is dubbed, “An Evening with the Avett Brothers.” Sounds pretty chill.
Formed in 2001 in North Carolina by brothers Scott and Seth Avett, the band has received Grammy nods and praise from all over.
Just over a month ago, the band released their latest album, “Magpie and the Dandelion.” Rolling Stone wrote about the newest album: “The Avett Brothers’ eighth LP came out of the same Rick Rubin-helmed sessions that produced last year’s ‘The Carpenter’, on which they deepened their mix of rootsy authenticity and pop polish. More hard-bitten and somberly reflective, ‘Magpie’ exposes lyrics that tilt into hokey romanticism.”
