Question: What musical group won a 2024 Fine Arts North Carolina Award?
Answer: The Avett Brothers, made up of Scott and Seth Avett and longtime friend Bob Crawford, won a 2024 Fine Arts North Carolina Award. Their partnership began when the two brothers merged Seth Avett’s high school band, Margo, and Scott Avett’s college band, Nemo. They released three albums as Nemo. After the group disbanded, Scott and Seth continued to write acoustic music together, and in 2001, stand-up bassist Bob Crawford joined the Avetts. The band released its first full-length album, Country Was, in 2002.
