Cacophonous Avett Bros. Photos & Jimmy Ryan


The wild Avett Brothers brought their "cacophonous bluegrass" (my term) to the Narrows on Saturday.

As usual, your humble blogger used his digital camera for soul-revealing candids. Up above is Scott Avett. As you can see, he seems to have a different attitude than one might find at the Grand Ole Opry. But his brother Seth, below, would positively get hung from the rafters with that hat. (Is it me, or does he look like a young Barry Gibb in this shot?)


The "normal" Avett Brother is not even related (as far as we know). His name is Bob Crawford and his photo is down below:

Opening the show was Jimmy Ryan, who has played the Narrows many times. Jimmy wowed the folks with his fingerpickin'--a talent not unexpected since he's often tapped to be a sideguy either on record or on the road by various artists, including (the late) Warren Zevon, Sarah Borges and Catie Curtis.
