Mignonette is the 2004 album by the American folk rock band The Avett Brothers.[1] The album was written and produced by Seth Avett, Scott Avett, and Bob Crawford of The Avett Brothers with additional vocals from their sister Bonnie Avett Rini and their father Jim Avett, who wrote and performed "Signs" in the 1970s.[2] The album was preceded by the February 2004 release of the single "Swept Away" and was released on the Ramseur Records label.[3]

The album was named after an English yacht that sank in the 1880s off the Cape of Good Hope, leaving the crew of four stranded on a lifeboat. The cabin boy, Richard Parker, was killed and eaten by the others, two of whom were later put on trial and convicted of murder.[4][5]
