When a violent storm sinks their whaling ship off the coast of New Bedford, Mass., the four survivors face a reckoning: how far will they go to stay alive? And can they live with the consequences?
Including Avett Brothers songs such as “No Hard Feelings,” “Murder in the City” and “Ain’t No Man”, Swept Away is inspired by the Avett Brothers’ 2004 concept album Mignonette, which was itself inspired by the story of the 1844 shipwreck of that name.
"Masculine eye candy. Marvelous songs."
