Legendary Giveback II!

We are teaming up with Cheerwine again this summer for the Legendary Giveback II concert! Just like last year, you can expect a Legendary night for fans that will benefit several charities. If you can’t make it to the concert, Livestream acccess will be offered to fans who pledge their time and give back to their communities. Stay tuned for more announcements about the Legendary Giveback II, but in the meantime, you can go here for more information.

A Message from Seth Avett

To all the wonderful Avett Brothers fans…

 

Over the years, it has been my honor and privilege to share, through so many amazing experiences, a connection with you all that is very special to me. It is in the nature of this incredible exchange that I feel it appropriate to share a piece of personal news.

 

My wife and I have decided to end our marriage. We have been separated for some time.  As I’m sure you will understand, this is a very difficult and painful time for us and our families.  I want to wholeheartedly thank you for respecting our privacy in this matter and I ask sincerely for your prayers, support and understanding.

 

Much love and gratitude…

Thank you!

We would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who bought lawn tickets to KXT’s Summer Cut last weekend. A portion of those ticket sales are being donated to American Red Cross Disaster Relief to help those affected by the Oklahoma Tornado. Thanks for giving to those in need and we’ll see you in June at the fest!

Martin D-35 Seth Avett Custom Signature Edition

We have some very special news today!  Seth has been hard at work designing a custom Martin D-35 guitar and today we are ready to share it with you all!  Seth has played his Martin D-35 at hundreds of concerts, on three solo records, and on 10 Avett Brothers albums.  Seth combined the classic Martin D-35 design with some unique modifications and a couple personal custom touches – including snowflake position markers and an interior label personally signed by Seth – to create his version of the perfect guitar.

“I’ve always seen a Martin Deadnought as the quintessential acoustic guitar; the blue-collar guitar, understated and solid in the hands of Jim Croce or Doc Watson or Ramblin’ Jack Elliott.  I’ve always leaned toward the warmth and strength of the D-35.  I got my first one, a 1977 model, about twelve years ago, and I’ve been wearing them out and refretting them and wearing them out again ever since.  This instrument is a true collaboration between me and the Martin Guitar Company.  I can’t wait to find out what songs are waiting in this guitar, for me and anyone who decides to buy one.”  -Seth Avett
