If you ever get famous...

Simone Felice, on leave from the brilliant Felice Brothers, is soon to release the debut album of his new project The Duke & The King (spot the Mark Twain reference, not his first!), Nothing Gold Can Stay. I've just got a early copy of the album, and it's an utter delight, a collection of sad but hopeful songs that sounds a world away from much of the Felice Brothers output, but also makes perfect sense - a different kind of American soul music if you like. Here's the lead song from the album, and they're premiering the album here at Bush Hall on May 26th, that's next tuesday!
