THE AVETT BROTHERS - The Carpenter (September 2012)

This is the sixth studio album from the boys of Concord, North Carolina and in my opinion a very good one !
Their brand of country rock is infectious and easy to digest. Lots of nice acoustic guitar and bass with smatterings of fiddles and banjos and the occasional trumpet ! The band is very tight with orchestral, organ and piano passages on here also.There's even a wild feedback guitar intro to Paul Newman versus the Demons !
And the vocals are sublime, with brothers Scott and Seth Avett sharing lead and background duties. Very good blend of love ballads, uptempo rock and original melodies with gorgeous harmonies !
I can't wait for their next release !

Pretty sure it will make the cut.
Can't give it a fair assessment yet.
Will be very hard to top I And Love And You
