iTunes Review

The Avett Brothers made a name for themselves as rough-and-raw folk practitioners. What they lack in finesse, they make up for with spirited performances and solid songwriting. This live album, recorded before the release of their major-label debut, I and Love and You, features several tracks from that album along with their formidable back catalog. It’s the best format possible to hear the band, since the studio does remove a bit of the group’s natural live energy. “The Ballad of Love and Hate” is a sharp-tongued observance of life and love. “When I Drink” is a sweet folk tune that could’ve come from the catalog of Loudon Wainwright III. The quiet elegance of “Murder In the City” and the brutal barn-burning of “I Killed Sally’s Lover” showcase the band at home with two entirely different speeds. “Paranoia in B Flat Major” is more hi-jinks from a band who add a naughty streak to a music that is often better known for its serious sincerity.

Customer Reviews

You should know by now...

the avett brothers are what the definition of true talent is. They are most amazing live band i've seen in years! Buy this album, buy every album with the avett name associated with it. This band has came along way and appreciates it's fans like no other. I look forward to the avett brother's future. Love The Perfect Space, Salvation Song, and When I Drink.

Better Live

The only band I can truly say that are infinitely better live than on album. Modern technology cannot capture their intensity, it must be seen in person.

Close Your Eyes and Listen

A decent setlist though it's not the entire set that the boys played in Charlotte. Missing is a great version of "Swept Away" which included the brothers' sister on vocals. Nice to hear the new songs live, however I would've liked to have heard some more older tunes mixed in this album as well. This live album has the best sound quality compared to previous live attempts and the energy of the crowd (and band) is captured beautifully. Highlights include "Pretty Girl from Matthews", "Talk of Indolence", and "Murder in the City". If you're like me and find "Kick Drum Heart" too pop-sounding, hearing it live may change your mind- worked for me.

Biography

Formed: 2000 in Concord, NC

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '00s, '10s

The Avett Brothers' music has roots in traditional folk and bluegrass, but also captures the high spirits and no-boundaries attitude of rock & roll — which is appropriate, since rock is where Scott Avett and Seth Avett first cut their teeth as musicians. Although siblings Scott (vocals, banjo) and Seth (vocals, guitar) began making music together as children, their group's genesis began when they were members of Nemo, a rock band that gigged regularly in Greenville, NC.
