Bella Donna Lyrics


Baby, I asked you not to keep me waiting...
I told you not to keep me waiting.
Now the afternoon is fading on...
Donna, Bella Donna have you seen me?
Have you ever really seen me?
Like I want for you to see me now...
Lonesome. Like you were when you were sixteen.
When maybe even I weren't listening,
did I help when I was kissing you?
Donna, Bella Donna are you listening?
And were you ever really listening?
Like I want for you to listen now...
---

The Avett Brothers are a non-traditional bluegrass band that originated in Concord, North Carolina. The two brothers, Seth and Scott, formed the group after the breakup of the former rock band, Nemo, adding a third member, Bob Crawford. More recently, they have been joined by cellist Joe Kwon. The Avett Brothers combine old-time country, bluegrass, punk, pop melodies, folk, rock and roll, honky tonk and ragtime to produce a sound described by the Washington Post as "post civil-war modern rock", or by other reviewers as "grungegrass". For a long time the group eschewed labels, feeling that "none would do the music justice." Ironically, the Avetts signed to Columbia Records on Independence Day 2008 to record their fifth album with acclaimed producer Rick Rubin. It's simply left up to each person to extract his or her own account from the Avetts' music."

Their live performances, generally at smaller venues, showcase their use of three-part harmony and southern rock feel, and are admired for being intense, energetic, and soulful. The Avetts have been picking up steam opening for Dave Matthews Band and playing SXSW and Newport Folk Festival.
