The Avett Brothers

with special guests The Milk Carton Kids

Today The Avett Brothers announced a very special performance at the Greek Theatre to take place on Friday, April 29th. They will be joined by special guest The Milk Carton Kids. Tickets will go on sale Saturday, December 5th at 10am at AXS.com.

The Avett Brothers will release their new album, “Live, Vol. Four” on December 18th. This latest live album was recorded at last year’s New Year’s Eve show at Raleigh’s PNC Arena and includes two new songs – “Satan Pulls The Strings” and “Rejects in the Attic.” It is available on CD/DVD, digital, and vinyl. All vinyl orders will receive a digital download of the album during release week – vinyl will be available in early 2016.

During 2009, the group made mainstream waves with their lauded major label debut, I and Love and You. It landed at #16 on the Billboard Top 200 and garnered unanimous critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, Paste, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and Time, who even dubbed it one of Top 10 albums of the year. 2012 saw The Carpenter hit #4 on the Billboard Top 200—their highest bow to date—while People, USA Today, and American Songwriter lauded the album.

In 2001, banjoist Scott and guitarist Seth formed The Avett Brothers with standup bass player Bob. Growing up in Concord, NC, the boys immersed themselves in their musician dad's record collection, falling in love with Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Crosby, Stills & Nash. They rose to the status of genre stalwarts over the course of six albums, including 2007's acclaimed Emotionalism.
