One morning, not too long ago, I turned on the television and put on the AUX TV channel, which is the CBC Radio3 television station (as far as I can tell), and on came a music video by a group called the Avett Brothers. I enjoyed the song and the arrangement (called "I And Love And You") and I liked the video, but was wondering if it could be one of those "one-hit" kinda groups. So I checked them out online and I was really impressed.
Apparently they have been together since 2000 (so "overnight" success they are not), but just this past year were signed to a major record label and their major record debut was produced by none other than Rick Rubin. So they seem to be doing alright.
I figured I'd share this with anyone interested in some Americana alt. folk rock insert genre now.
Here is their MySpace for tunes and here is their website for info.
Enjoy.
