Artist bio:
Avi Kaplan lives deep in the forest near the Tennessee run of the Natchez Trace trail. His cabin is worlds away from Los Angeles, his hub for six years as he toured the world with Pentatonix. Now, surrounded by farms & forests just a stone's throw from Nashville, the kid who grew up listening to folk music among the California Sequoias is content. "I'm finally writing the music that's in my heart," Avi says.
In 2017, Avi stepped away from creating after years of rushing from stadium to stadium at a frenzied pace—an experience he calls "beautiful," but one that also left him physically and artistically depleted. Since returning to music on his own terms, the songs have poured out of him, ready for foot-stomping music halls and serious listening rooms alike. He's also liberated his vocals, once known as the perfect power-bass, to reveal a nuanced voice, rich, tender and abounding. Surrounded by forest and newfound artistic clarity, the result has yielded dozens and dozens of new songs. Reveling in the simplicity, "l get on my porch with my guitar, look at my trees, and write a song," he says.
Avi has taken his time, and his future is wide open because of it. He has rediscovered his own musical roots and delved deeper into the folk he's always loved—exploring a range of sounds from soul to bluegrass—he has reconnected with himself and found yet another way to connect beautifully with others. "l am so grateful I get to do this." Avi says. "I'm truly excited for the future."
