South Carolina husband-and-wife duo Shovels & Rope channel country, folk, bluegrass, Americana, and blues through a nervy punk/indie rock prism. They found commercial success with the albums O' Be Joyful (2012) and Swimmin' Time (2014), both of which cracked the Billboard 200. In addition to acclaimed studio LPs like Little Seeds (2016), By Blood (2019), and Something Is Working Up Above My Head (2024), the pair have released multiple volumes of their popular Busted Jukebox covers series, which has seen them collaborate with a wide array of artists like Brandi Carlile, the Milk Carton Kids, M. Ward, Rhett Miller, Sharon Van Etten, and others.

Members of Shovels & Rope include, or have included, Cary Ann Hearst and Michael Trent.
