The Felice Brothers (Philadelphia, PA)

The Felice Brothers

The Felice Brothers new album Life in the Dark due June 24 on Yep Roc is classic American music. At once plainspoken and deeply literate the bands latest features 9 new songs that capture the hopes and fears the yearning and resignation of a rootless restless nation at a time of change.Life in the Dark also coincides with The Felice Brothers 10th anniversary as a band. Hailed by the AV Club for a sound at once timeless yet tossed-off theyve released plenty of music over the past decade often on their own without a record label but the new album is the fullest realization yet of the bands DIY tendencies. Self-produced by the musicians and engineered by James Felice (who also contributed accordion keyboards and vocals) the Felice Brothers made Life in the Dark themselves in a garage on a farm in upstate New York observed only by audience of poultry.The recording is definitely rough around the edges and cheap James Felice says laughing. It was liberating and really cool to do....
