3 song concert. Amazing first song. "Laundry Room". Bella Donna is 3rd and equally beautiful.

From the page: With all due respect to its terrific albums and kinetic, frenetic live shows, if The Avett Brothers could put on a three-song acoustic concert at every workplace in America, the band would be a world-beating colossus. For proof, take six minutes to don some headphones and listen to "Laundry Room," which opens this set at the desk of All Songs Considered host Bob Boilen. "Laundry Room" is a highlight of the rootsy, harmony-drenched rock group's forthcoming album I and Love and You, scheduled for release in September. But if that song isn't peeking far enough into the future, the band - Seth Avett on guitar and vocals, Scott Avett on banjo and vocals, Bob Crawford on bass and Joe Kwon on cello - jumps even farther ahead with the as-yet-unrecorded "Down With the Shine." To close the set, the group finally looks backward with a lovely rendering of the ballad "Bella Donna," from last year's The Gleam II EP. * * * * * These guys continue to blow me away and I love them more with each passing day. They never fail to make me dance and smile while listening to them. I can't wait for the new album release in September.
