Today's musical suggestions are two of my favorite bands in the Folk/Rock genre. They are “The Avett Brothers” and “Mumford and Sons” respectfully. These bands were an acquired taste for me. The Avett Brothers were first introduced to me by my brother a few years ago; I have to say that I really didn’t care for The Avett Brothers at first. It wasn’t until the album “I And Love And You” came out that I really got into them. It was a “gateway” album, it awoke my inner hillbilly. I would categorize Mumford and Avett as two different genres even if Amazon doesn’t. Mumford’s music is more folk sounding to me while Avett is has more of a bluegrass sound to it. However you label it, it is pure awesomeness in my ears and two of my top listened to bands in my iTunes library. Below are a few links to my favorite albums and some other resources.
