    My favorite band forever and always, they got me through high school, college, and most recently in the past 5 years, attempting to be an adult. I feel nothing but joy and happiness for them, no matter what kind of music they are making, because they are real and they write from their hearts, always have and always will - representing our North Carolina the way it deserves.

      I just discovered them through Elliott smith and Seth's and Jessica 's album. I've seen there flyers at Dear Tick shows. I'm going to see them at red Rocks on the 3rd of July 2024. One of the best live bands I've ever seen on CZcams. My first real live experience is in a few weeks

    When Seth dips down to those low vocals (about 2:31), oh man. There's always something subtle like that in these private performances that makes me watch them about 20 times.

    Saw them live for the first time in Newport. First at a songwriters' workshop (didn't even know about it, just in the right place at the right time) and then on the main stage later on. I don't have words to say how Ithe day

  • @caroline6604
    @caroline6604 Před 11 lety +1

    Sorry. ...how the day changed me. Thank you Avett Brothers! And all the people who helped a first-timer get up close to the stage. It was amazing!!

  • @rickybop1
    @rickybop1 Před 10 lety +4

    This is new to me. It's morning here, and I was searching for something sweet to start my day...something with a morning theme. I often enjoy listening to Oliver James "Good Morning Starshine, Harry Chapin's "Sunday Morning Sunshine", The Rascal's "It's A Beautiful Morning", etc. I typed in "morning song" and this came up. The song isn't quite as light-hearted as what I was looking for, but still very very nice. Love the heart-felt melody, beautiful harmony and the earthy ambiance. Thanks, guys.

      +Mark Surely I love Both! I've seen them 7 or 8 times, and always in the front. Sitting through 2 bands that I didn't care about at all, just to be close as possible to the stage, and their energy! !! They are great live, but they sing better when they are not screaming. On tour they have to sing so much, their voices are, I don't know, stretched? This video was so peaceful, and the opposite of touring, and sleeping on a bus, and writing songs. I love em any way they want to play. Fine by me. I love their recordings! I think I have them all, and listen to them because they are smart, with charm. Each album is a new band with familiar leanings.

    As a music lover, I think this song is incredible and The Avett Brothers are immensely talented.
    As a classically trained Bassist, that technique of the Bassist is painful to watch. Please don't hurt your wrist!

  • @yellowprettybird
    @yellowprettybird Před 10 lety +1

    My favorite thing about the Avett Brothers is that they have a style that's kind of their "home" (a song like this, for example) but they branch out from it. "Paul Newman vs. the Demons" may not have that folk-y sound that fans of the Lumineers and Mumford are drawn to the Avetts for, but it's kinda like "Pretty Girl from Chile" - a song they wrote 6+ YEARS ago.
    They don't necessarily have a consistent sound, but what their biggest fans love about them is that they're consistently themselves.

    Actually, I believe the whole concept of the "Magpie and the Dandelion" is working around that same theme. "Skin and Bones" and "Vanity" are essentially cousins to this song, and "Another is Waiting" is the cautionary tale

    • @atticusfist7953
      @atticusfist7953 Před 9 lety +1

      "If you finally stop caring". It's about their aunt, to whom they were very close, who after a long battle with cancer, decided to give up, prompting the next line, "just don't go and tell someone that does" (care). After all, surviving is harder than dying. But I'm sorry, I misread your comment. Thought you said, it was unclear. Well, maybe it's about some crazed fan named Karen who was stalking them.
