The Lumineers have released a cover of “The Kid” by The Felice Brothers. The song will appear on an upcoming tribute album called Felice County Fair.
The project was led by Brandy Schultz, wife of Lumineers frontman Wesley Schultz. Wesley says that listening to The Felice Brothers played a big part in their relationship. “When Brandy and I first started dating, we each made a mix CD for each other,” he says. “We each put Felice Brothers on our playlists…it was then I knew she was a keeper. A lot of our initial falling in love was listening to The Felice Brothers.”
Felice County Fair is due out Oct. 16. Other artists on the album include Brandon Flowers of The Killers, Nathaniel Rateliff and Bright Eyes.
