In 2016, the band was inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame.  The 2017 documentary, May It Last: A Portrait of The Avett Brothers (co-directed by Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio), chronicles the process of writing 2016’s True Sadness, which début ed at N° 1 on Billboard’s Top Albums, N° 1 on Rock Albums, N° 3 on the Billboard 200, and scored two Grammy nominations.

Swept Away, a musical inspired by and featuring the music of The Avett Brothers, premiered in January 2022 at Berkeley Repertory Theatre to rave reviews from audiences and critics and recently wrapped a limited pre-Broadway engagement at DC’s Arena Stage.
