Folk-rock favorites The Avett Brothers bring their soaring harmonies and heartfelt energy to the Ford Idaho Center Amphitheater for a summer night under the stars. For more than two decades, the North Carolina band has won over audiences with their singular blend of bluegrass, punk spirit, folk, and rock — pairing raw emotional honesty with foot-stomping, banjo-driven anthems. From beloved songs like “I and Love and You,” “Head Full of Doubt/Road Full of Promise,” and “Live and Die” to their newer material, their live shows are joyful, cathartic, and utterly unforgettable — the kind of communal experience that turns a crowd into a choir.
Opening the night is the red-hot Texas country/Americana band Shane Smith & The Saints, whose fiery musicianship and rich storytelling have made them one of the most talked-about live acts in the genre.
Set against the open-air backdrop of the Ford Idaho Center Amphitheater, this is summer-concert energy at its finest — a spacious outdoor venue built for warm evenings, big choruses, and thousands of fans singing along together. Grab your seats or settle into the lawn, and make a night of it.
