The Feelies Play The Velvet Underground and Other Favorites at White Eagle Hall

To coincide with the opening of The Velvet Underground Exhibit in lower Manhattan, The Feelies will be performing a very special concert at White Eagle Hall. The Feelies have been chosen to participate in conjunction with the exhibit due to the huge influence The Velvet Underground have had in their career. For this performance they will be doing an entire set of Velvets material in addition to a set of beloved originals.

Formed in Haledon NJ in 1976, The Feelies released 4 albums- including their critically acclaimed and influential debut Crazy Rhythms, which was voted 49 in the top 100 albums of the 1980s by Rolling Stone magazine and chosen by Spin Magazine as 49 of the best alternative records of all time. Supporting the release of their first four albums the band appeared on the The Late Show With David Letterman and in concerts with The Patti Smith Group, REM, and Bob Dylan as well as touring with Lou Reed. The twin-guitar attack of songwriters and founders Glenn Mercer and Bill Million is the infectious sound of the group. Paired with driving drums and percussion, it has left an indelible mark on the landscape of rock and roll.
