Wednesday, April 16 Avett Brothers in Portland

Thanks to Liz Devine from The Crystal Ballroom for sharing these photos of The Avett Brothers' concert last Thursday, sponsored by opbmusic. We thought these pix were too good not to share.

The Avett Brothers started the show with "If I Get Murdered in the City," a song about familial bonds and what you leave behind, and one of the quietest songs of the night.

From there, it was mostly a choice of fast or faster, as the band ripped through songs from last year's release, Emotionalism -- songs like "Will You Come Again?", "Die Die Die," "Paranoia in B-flat Major," "Shame," and "I Would Be Sad."

And opbmusic is sponsoring more concerts this week and next, with The Wiyos playing the McMenamins Great Northwest Music Tour. The series starts tonight (4/18) in Bend, at Old St. Francis School. Shows in the series all start at 7pm, and they're free.
