“Absolutely electrifying... mesmerizing melodies that redefine what’s traditional, with personality and verve.” - Paul MacArthur — CelticRadio.net
Today, Pennsylvania-based House of Hamill is a fixture on festival stages across the US and has shared their music and stories on the country’s premier folk stages. Their version of “Pound a Week Rise” rose to #1 on the US Folk DJ charts, and the video for their all-violin cover of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” amassed over 16 million views on Facebook, where it was shared over 400,000 times. Their latest release, “Folk Hero,” captures perfectly the frenetic energy and eclecticism of their always-engaging live show with a lively collection of original instrumentals, reimagined folk ballads, and new songs that showcase the trio’s versatility.
