Simone Felice is a founding member of internationally acclaimed Catskill Mountain based artists The Felice Brothers, whose seminal self-titled album remains one of the most influential works of this century’s indie-folk revival. In the spring of 2010 Simone underwent emergency open-heart surgery to halt the degenerative effects of a childhood fever. It was this dance with death – coupled with a need to tell his own story – which prompted him to walk the solo path, which also followed his work in The Duke and The King
His new live double album (feat. The Felice Brothers) is released this summer ahead of his tour on Mighty Hudson Records. This special anthology showcases selected works from a decade of writing, truly capturing Simone’s rare gift as a songsmith, poet and visionary. Simone’s just received his first Gold Record for his work with guru producer Rick Rubin on The Avett Brothers seminal 2009 Columbia Records release.
