I remember when Mumford And Sons broke through a couple of years ago, with their banjo-led rock-and-roots approach, I heard more than a few people say:
If I were The Avett Brothers, I'd be pretty irritated.
So here we are, over 2 years since "Sigh No More" and nearly 3 years since "I And Love And You," and The Avetts are on the verge of releasing a new album, and Mumford And Sons has a new one due in the September.
Both records stand to garner a lot of attention, press, airplay and ear-time.
I just can't think of a time when the banjo had the chance to move to the fore-front of music in such a way . . .
Hear the song on Youtube.
