The Felice Brothers are amongst the first set of bands just announced to be playing the fantastic Green Man Festival in August.
Other top bands confirmed this morning include Feist, The Walkmen, Yann Tiersen and Jonathan Richman. Check out the full line-up so far here or listen to Green Man’s 2012 Spotify playlist here.
Held from 17-19 August, in the rather stunning location that is the Black Mountains in Wales, this will be the festival’s 10th anniversary, so expect it to be an extra specially good one this year!

We’re very sorry to announce that The Felice Brothers European dates have been postponed, which includes tonight’s show at The Macbeth. All current tickets will be valid for the rescheduled dates. Please see below for a statement from the band.
A few days ago our brother Ian became very ill with a painful rash on his face and head. He was admitted to a hospital in Berlin and diagnosed with Shingles, and the doctors have strongly advised that he stay in the hospital for the rest of the week.
So, for Ian’s health, we have decided to postpone the remainder of our European tour. We were all very excited to play for our awesome fans on the other side of the Atlantic, and we can’t really express how bummed we are by the whole situation.
Please find below the rescheduled 2012 UK and Irish dates. More news on the rescheduled European dates very soon.
Thank you for your understanding,
- The Felice Brothers

The Dawes and Felice Brothers albums have been doing well in the end of year album charts. Following on from the news that both albums feature in Rough Trade’s top 100, Uncut magazine has also acknowledged them in their Top Albums of 2011 lists.
Dawes’ album Nothing Is Wrong comes in at No.39, with album track My Way Back Home featuring on this month’s Uncut CD. The 20 Best Americana Albums chart places The Felice Brothers’ Celebration, Florida at No.18, with Dawes making it in the top 10 at No.9.
Other notable successes include Dawes’s album at No.5 and Felice Brothers at No.30 in the American Songwriter Top 50 and Dawes at No.8 in Paste Magazine. Not bad at all.
