The Avett Brothers is the self-titled eleventh studio album by American folk rock band the Avett Brothers. The album was released on May 17, 2024, by American Recordings, Ramseur Records, and Thirty Tigers.[1]
The Avett Brothers received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, the album received an average score of 68, which indicates "generally favorable reviews," based on 9 reviews.
Critics called the album a return to form after their last full-length album Closer Than Together was poorly received upon its release in 2019. In a positive review, Timothy Monger of AllMusic wrote, "some of the songs, especially the energetic 'Love of a Girl' and 'Orion's Belt,' hark back to that heyday, but the earnest folk-pop of their later years still dominates the set." Chris Conaton of PopMatters opined that the album represented a shift into "long-term career mode" for the band, arguing that the record is "solid but not spectacular," and that, "there is enough strong material here to satisfy longtime fans."
Following the release of the album, the band promoted the record by performing "Forever Now" on Jimmy Kimmel Live and CBS Saturday Morning, as well as "Love Of A Girl" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.[2] [3]
