Team Love Records is proud to announce the release of The Felice Brothers’  latest full-length, Yonder Is The Clock. Due out April 7th, the  album is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed self-titled record  released in 2008, which was their first for Team Love.

Yonder Is  The Clock is the band’s fourth record, including their 2006 self-released  debut Through These Reins and Gone and their 2007 release  Tonight At The Arizona. With Yonder Is The Clock, the Catskill  Mountain natives look to build upon the praise heaped upon them in the  past.“You won’t find more American music than that of The Felice Brothers,”  wrote the New York Daily News. “With their wheezing accordions,  broken-down pianos, flinty acoustic guitars and creaky vocals, the brothers  capture the history – and mystery – of rural America.”

In February The Felice Brothers hit  the road for a nine-date run with Old Crow Medicine Show, and continue  on with headlining dates throughout the spring. Highlights include  a record release party at the Bardavan Opera House in Poughkeepsie,  NY on April 7th, and a swing through Austin, TX for SXSW 2009.Titled with a phrase drawn from the  pages of Mark Twain, Yonder Is The Clock is a nod to all of the  American ghosts that lend their narrative and characters to the forthcoming  release. The Felice Brothers studio was built from the remains of an  abandoned chicken coop and it was there over the summer and fall of  2008 that they wrote and recorded this new collection of songs. The  record is teaming with tales of love, death, betrayal, baseball, train  stations, phantoms, pandemics, jail cells, rolling rivers and frozen  winter nights.As always, the band is incredibly excited to bring the new songs on  the road in 2009 as they continue to take their compelling live act  to people across the world. A defining memory of their exploits to date  might be the scene that played out at their appearance at the 2008 Newport  Folk Festival. When the power went out halfway through their set, without  hesitation the band jumped down off the stage and gleefully kept on  playing acoustic while stomping around in the mud that had formed on  account of the ongoing downpour. It was another epic performance that  drew upon the familiarity and casual ease of the backyard BBQ sessions  that took place at their dad’s on Sunday afternoons during their first  days as a group. The audience that day, like others before and after,  left utterly converted.Simone, Ian and James Felice are the  three eldest boys from a family of seven, born carpenter’s sons in  the wilds of New York’s Catskill Mountains. Their long time friends  Christmas Clapton and Greg Farley round out the group.In February The Felice Brothers hit  the road for a nine-date run with Old Crow Medicine Show, and continue  on with headlining dates throughout the spring.
