I’ve been watching this video nearly weekly since I was 16. My cousin introduced me to the Felice brothers after interning at Saddle Creek records. I will be 30 in a few months and it still hits me the same way it did all those years ago. Wonderful group.
I love this! I've been listening to bright eyes since I was 16...am almost 35 now, I observe Conor Oberst Sunday, and since discovering the felice brothers in 2013, I have felice bros Saturdays now too.❤ I am so happy to be alive for their music.
You are correct about their personal pains. Simone Felice had a brain anurism (sp?) when a child and almost died. Then, about a year ago, his heart stopped. He released his first solo album recently...this album was made when recovering from open heart surgery. He almost died this second time leaving behind his 1 year old baby girl, but he didn't. His work, and all the brothers work (3 of them are blood, the others may as well be) is exceptional. They are artists; we are fortunate for that.
This is beautiful. The film work really captures the moment. I just love being at moments like this, and it's great to see one of these moments caught so perfectly on camera.
I got to see the Felice Brothers playing live on stage in Old London Town last night, a most brilliant concert was, after the show the boys stood out near the exit so people could say hello and thank you as they passed by, I asked the boys was it OK if I became the 5 member in their band, they James & Ian said James yes and could I play harp for them, Man as I happy,
what makes these boys and their songs so special is their transparacy and the fact everything is is out there for all to see. no hidden agenda, just honesty. plus ian felice is one of the best song writers of a generation, which is nice to have on your c.v.
@@agehernandez1853 Hell bro , nine years since I made that comment . In the mean time I have seen these boys 6 times and met Ian Felice for the first time last year, in Manchester UK . Not very talkative but very, very humble as was James whom I've met three times now .
just saw them at the Rathskeller in Madison, WI. awesome. they are so much fun without trying too hard. great music. i bought their latest album and i want to see them live again!
If you listen and look back far enough, someone always sounds like someone else. These guys are awesome. Dylan is great. There doesn't need to be a mutual exclusiveness to it. Just enjoy the music.
Just saw the FB at Bethel Woods in NY(site of Woodstock ). They are amazing. The crowd was a mix of young and "mature." I am 60 and am now a devoted fan. They are not only mufti talented,, they are so cute.
Me too......... & I've been to a fuck of a lot of gigs over the last 38 years.... Wasn't the gig at "The Lumiere" though? Upstairs I think...? It's closed now sadly.
First heard this song at the Koko last year, then again in BRighton this summer. Pleased to find it on GBYA but didn't know they were singing it so long ago. A wonderful song and this video is amazing. How lucky were those in the audience. What a band!
mesmorizing. No amps or mikes or even background noise. These guys look like they waltzed down the hills from some ancient mining camp. Unaware of the day or year. Love it!
its good to see the bros in this kind of setting--usually its in a hall with rowdy ass people talking and shouting-not giving a damn about their music--these guys are good
Having been to a Felice Bros show, all these Dylan remarks floor me. I KNOW that Dylan is rightfully considered the epitome of American songwriting, but these boys stand their own ground, beat their own drum, and by damn, dance to it any freaking way they please. Give them accolades for being awesome songwriters and musicians, not Dylan sound-a-likes.
I just love it when people compare musicians to Dylan and mean it in a negative way. They all say it like it's the musician's fault they were born with the gift of having a voice similar to one of the greatest vocalists ever. Yes, Ian Felice's voice is reminiscent of Dylan's...and he's one fortunate bastard. By the way of you have yet to see them live, you should. December 2nd, NYC.
The observation should not be why does one band sound like Bob Dylan but why so much contemporary music sounds so homogenous and indistinguishably boringly dire. Felice Brothers are terrific and one of literally a handful of bands doing anything interesting and are no more like Bob Dylan than Bob Dylan was like Guthrie or Guthrie was like Blind Alfred Reed. Light the candle and pass on the flame......................

It’s priceless.
Starting with a self deprecating joke. Small crowd. Family vibes. Casual brilliance. Songwriting that can change your life. The Felice Brothers!
This live version sounds one thousand times better than the recorded version. Love it.
"What keeps me alive is the green in your eyes. And the sweet distant drone of your voice on the phone."
Kills me.
Will stand forever. Such a beautiful line.
And me.
No matter how many times I listen to this wonderful piece, I always end up with goose-bumps and teary eyes!
omhril Me too!
I’m the opposite, i get goose eyes and teary bumps. Very nice song though
@@jamesconnick1112 And I'm the opposite of that. I get eye bumps and goose tears.
@@aaronhoyes1781 And I’m the opposite of that: I get Duck Bumps and Glassy Eyes
This song!!!!
Oh, those lucky few; to have witnessed such a wondrous moment.
I'm obsessed with this band. Everything that I love in music.
These guys are great! I'm proud to say we play them on the radio station I work for.
I love the athmosphere, I love the harmony, I love the melody, I love the song.....I'm addicted

As amazing as the felice brothers are it's hard to believe that beautiful song was performed in front of so few
This is beautiful. The film work really captures the moment. I just love being at moments like this, and it's great to see one of these moments caught so perfectly on camera.
one of my favorite songs ever
Got to be one of the greatest love songs ever written and performed. Wonderful.
I'm so glad a friend of mine linked this to me. No matter how many times I listen to it I end up with goosebumps and watery eyes!
Man their lives seems to be so easy when I look at them. It seems like they live the life of freedom I've always wanted.
it is out of this world - it is in the countryside...
miss the hell outta this group, love you all , thank you
gives me goosebumps every single time oh man
Oh my goodness everything about them is so wonderful!
So much love!
this is stunning. thank you very much. the song is beautiful, it is performed beautifully.
Band, song, audience, location - far beyond show business. Great video - looking forward to their Munich concert!
This is why the internet was invented.
felice brothers own everything

You can feel the cool of an English summer evening as these guys tap into the source.
Oh, quite stunning. I love this.
top post, this is a great singer

Ian is the shit. Met him once in San Antonio and he was the sweetest most chill dude ever.

AMAZING

A moment simply sublime.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Love this song (and these boys) so much.
Less is more. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks
just saw them at the Rathskeller in Madison, WI. awesome. they are so much fun without trying too hard. great music. i bought their latest album and i want to see them live again!

Sweet American Sound & soul

Friday the 9th of December 2011 at the Glasgow ABC might just be the best night ever!!!!
If you listen and look back far enough, someone always sounds like someone else. These guys are awesome. Dylan is great. There doesn't need to be a mutual exclusiveness to it. Just enjoy the music.
beautiful
Thanks for capturing. This is magic.
This is absolutely extraordinary.

Me too......... & I've been to a fuck of a lot of gigs over the last 38 years.... Wasn't the gig at "The Lumiere" though? Upstairs I think...? It's closed now sadly.
Sorry, that was meant for Steve Jones on a different thread...
Conocí a este grupo en UN DON EXCEPCIONAL. 😎
desde ahí se han convertido en mi banda favorita. 🤟🤟🤟
This is amazing
Love it!! Beautiful tune! Saw them open for Drive-By Truckers, and am now hooked. Would love to see them like this some time!!
First heard this song at the Koko last year, then again in BRighton this summer. Pleased to find it on GBYA but didn't know they were singing it so long ago. A wonderful song and this video is amazing. How lucky were those in the audience. What a band!
This quite possibly might be my favorite video on yt
beautiful.
mesmorizing. No amps or mikes or even background noise. These guys look like they waltzed down the hills from some ancient mining camp. Unaware of the day or year. Love it!
this is just remarkable....
great... really great... perfect in fact...
HOW... How have 20 people given this a thumbs down?!?!?!?
Woody Wood there are some pure wank cunts out there that don't know kwality even if it whacks them square in the chops
Thanks bigred. Much appreciated!
This was surprisingly awesome.

Excellent music!
Great fuckin' band. Cheers to Martin for turning me on to these guys.

Love some Felice brothers. Fucking genius. Every word, every note.
Superb.

I've always wanted to play a gig in an open natural space like that, it looks incredble
First contact with the Felice Brothers here... wonderful and heartbreaking, thanks for the upload!
Come to Canada!
Best band in the country.
Love so hard.
I saw the Felice Brothers within a few days of this performance at The Borderline. I love the grungy Dylanesque sound the singer has.
Love these guys. A show with them and Justin Townes Earle is gonna be the shit !!
This was shot very well. Good job.
This really is too damn good!
big like brothers,
Love from Columbia co
Soooooooooooooooooooooo #*!$#! awesome!
Haha, we saw the name of the band and since "Felice" is my sister's nickname, we looked them up
They're awesome!

Fucking A...!
Saw them last night in Boston. Phenomenal performance. Would have stole the show if Mumford and Sons weren't so damn good lol
Wow.....
This is great. Love The Felice Brothers.
Did sound for Simone Felice last year. He is ace as his new band.
Lucky you..! .that must have been pretty special.....

these guys are great--poetry at its best--go see-um
I've gone to some great shows but none as great as the ones these guys have done. I just hope they hold on.

Well said, and I think that holds true for a lot of comparisons. Sounding like Dylan is a good thing.
@Colm Mac Diarmada My old man told me, well he told me a lot of things... the student should surpass the teacher.
Bring it on, Charleston Pour House Oct 7th..
