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. 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. “I am so grateful I get to do this.” Avi says. “I’m truly excited for the future.”
