If you put your ear to the street, you can hear the rumble of the world in motion; people going to and from work, to school, to the grocery store. You may even hear the whisper of their living rooms, their conversation, their complaints, and if you're lucky, their laughter. If you're almost anywhere in America , you'll hear something different, something special, something you recognize but haven't heard in a long time. It is the sound of the celebration of life. This is the sound of The Avett Brothers. Their songs are honest--just chords with real voices singing real melodies. But, the heart and the energy with which they are sung, is why people are talking, and why so many sing along. They are a reality in a world of entertainment built with smoke and mirrors. When they play, the common man can break the mirrors and blow the smoke away, so that all that's left behind is the unwavering beauty of the songs. That's the commotion, that's the celebration, and wherever The Avett Brothers play, that's what you'll find.
She's country. She's indie rock, she's folk and soul. She's all of them and none of them. Jessica Lea Mayfield's sweet sound is at once haunting and soothing; a blend of different styles that results in a very unique brand of music, which she dubs "Alt. Music." Whether she's delivering a mesmerizing "classic country" tinged ballad on her guitar, or stomping out an "indie rock" anthem on her banjo, Jessica writes and performs with a sensitivity, rawness, and confidence well beyond her years.
