Scott Avett HW



I first heard the Avett Brothers music while driving to lunch with my cousin Kevin. Shortly after that we went to see them play in Perkasie PA in a 100+ year old Theatre. It was among the top 3 best shows I have ever been to. Sometime later I discovered that one of the Avett Brothers (Scott) was an artist, and an exceptional one at that. Here are some links to his work with the mediums of painting, printing and also his musical works with The Avett Brothers.
