The band I pick was the Avett Brothers, mainly because I don’t know many bands. And they are a contemporary bluegrass band slash everything else. I heard about the Avett Brothers back home early on before they were big. They are from Concord, NC which is where they received from the Mullis family. Piano lessons from Karen, guitar lessons from Nelson, and banjo lessons from Ned. “They began with dreams of rock/pop stardom (Scott) and astronaut adventures (Seth).
