CapLive to Welcome Felice Brothers, 6/10

CapLive and the historic Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center in downtown York welcome the Felice Brothers to the Capitol Theatre on Wednesday, June 10 at 8:00 p.m. Known for their wild and intense live shows, the rock and roll band is the newest addition to CapLive's eclectic lineup of nationally-known acts and up-and-coming performers. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, March 31 at 10:00 a.m.

Originally from upstate New York, the Felice Brothers band has been traveling the world for 8 years. They have appeared at Bonnaroo, Newport Folk Festival, and Coachella and toured with the Killers, Mumford and Sons and Bright Eyes.

The Felice Brothers' new album Favorite Waitress marked the first time the band ever recorded in a proper studio. Produced by the band's longtime producer and collaborator Jeremy Backofen, the album is their most fully realized statement yet. After diligently working for a year, mining through a hundred songs worth of material, they took off last December for Omaha and knocked the whole thing out in a week.

Favorite Waitress is about a fantastic escape from the terrifying realities of modern life. The first single "Cherry Licorice" is an ode to never growing up, retreating from a domestic nightmare into a world of soda pop rivers and candy corn comas. "Meadow of A Dream" feels like that perfect summer day in the woods lost in some primitive western shoot out with the neighborhood gang- when you wish you would never hear any parent cry for supper.

Tickets are $21.00 and go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, March 31 at 10:00 a.m. Tickets may be purchased online at www.StrandCapitol.org, by calling the Strand-Capitol box office at 717-846-1111, or at the door the evening of the show.
