Based in Concord, North Carolina, the Avett Brothers, made up of brothers Seth (vocals, guitar) and Scott Avett (vocals, banjo), and their close friend Bob Crawford (bass, vocals), formed in 2000.

In 2009, they released their major-label debut, I and Love and You, to rave reviews. The album peaked at #16 on the Billboard 200 album chart and resulted in an invitation to perform alongside Bob Dylan and Mumford & Sons at the Grammy Awards in 2011.
