Thirteen Raggedy Old Avett Brothers Songs To Make You Love (Or Hate) I and Love and You Even More
If you've flipped through the pages of Paste in recent years—whether physical or virtual—you're likely familiar with the Avett Brothers, if not just flat-out smitten with them. We first told their story back in 2006 and caught back up with them this summer as they prepared for the release of their major-label debut. I and Love and You came on out Columbia's American Records imprint last week, and it's a glorious feat—you can read our own Bart Blasengame's thoughts on the record right here. (For the record, yes, that is the first time Paste—or anyone else, we estimate—has ever committed... read more

"This is the plight of the Avett Brothers fan: He must keep a stiff upper lip as his heroes trek off into the great unknown mainstream."

And that trek is coming sooner than you think, true believers, because the Brothers debuted on the Late Show with David Letterman last night to perform a stirring version of the album's eponymous single.... read more

While I was working on the cover story for the June issue of Paste (the new Special Edition mini), I sat in a room at the Hilton in Austin, Texas, with one of The Avett Brothers' label reps from their new label Columbia, and she played me rough mixes of seven tracks from the band's forthcoming major-label debut, I and Love and You, which was produced by the legendary Rick Rubin, who's worked with everyone from Johnny Cash to Public Enemy.Even though I was hearing unfinished rough mixes, it was already the some of the best-sounding, most fully realized music... read more

It's barely been a couple years since the Avett Brothers released their much-lauded Emotionalism (with an new EP in the interim), and they're already putting the finishing touches on their next LP, I and Love and You.

Amidst a year seemingly packed end-to-end with cross-country touring, The Avett Brothers have somehow found time to record their Rick Rubin-helmed American Records debut, titled I and Love and You, and now set for an Aug. 11 release.
