Four-time GRAMMY Award nominees The Avett Brothers made mainstream waves with their critically acclaimed 2009 major label debut, I and Love and You. In 2012, The Carpenter hit #4 on the Billboard 200, followed by 2013’s Magpie and the Dandelion, which debuted at #5.

The 2017 documentary May It Last: A Portrait of The Avett Brothers—co-directed by Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio—chronicles the making of 2016’s True Sadness, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top Albums, #1 on Rock Albums, #3 on the Billboard 200, and earned two Grammy nominations. The film was released theatrically and on HBO to rave reviews and is available on DVD, BluRay, and VOD.

In 2019, the band released their tenth studio album, Closer Than Together, featuring the single “High Steppin’,” which reached #1 on the Americana Radio Singles Chart. The Third Gleam followed during the COVID-19 pandemic and debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Americana/Folk Albums, #1 Rock Albums, and #1 Vinyl Albums, with the single “Victory” also hitting #1 on the Americana Radio Singles Chart.

This year saw the release of The Avett Brothers, an album that is as much untitled as it is self-titled—a collection of songs that revealed themselves naturally over time.

Swept Away—a musical inspired by and featuring the music of The Avett Brothers—recently debuted on Broadway. The band has been inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame and earned a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Association.

They are currently on tour throughout the U.S.
