The Avett Brothers
Sunday, March 11 8:00pm
Location: Orpheum Theater - 200 N. Broadway
Contact Phone: 316-755-7328
Tickets: SOLDOUT
The magic of the Avett Brothers is evident on "I and Love and You," the Avett Brothers' big-label debut. Its 13 songs are delivered in a style that defies pigeonholing but might be described as a rootsy amalgam of folk, country, bluegrass, rock and pop - even a jab of punk-style dynamics.
The Avett Brothers are a grassroots phenomenon, built from the ground up. "I and Love and You" marks the point at which they're poised, with perfect timing, to break through to a broader audience.
