Description
Hound Dog Hill's newest CD "High and Happy" is chock-full of Appalachian fiddle and banjo, original old time and bluegrass, all set to their groovy beat box take and frenetic energy they call "Sneergrass" and "Hick-Hop"... Get ya some!
Notes
Led by the banjo-playing, songwriting, prone to whooping and hollering Cutch Tuttle (whose name alone seems like it should be emblazoned across the center ring of some old 1920's shellac 78 record) The Hound Dog Hill have been making music "in the old way" for close to eleven years now.
But the band's real strength lies in its original material which celebrates and pay homage to the old-time string band sound and the songs come on like an old steam-powered engine, billowing smoke and tearing down the track. And it's songs like ".44 Blues", "High & Happy", and "Old Man Chinquipin" (all of which appear on The Hound Dog Hill's latest album High and Happy) that have helped earn the band accolades and awards including Best Original Song at the 2007 Appalachian String Band Festival and Best Old Time Band at the 15th Annual Glen Maury Fiddlers' Convention in 2008.
Yes, The Hound Dog Hill rip and they've probably been known to tear it a time or two as well. And when Cutch steps up the microphone and lets it go, there's no mistaking the old-time in his delivery. And when the solos break in, whether it's mandolin or harmonica or that big ol' upright bass, it's spirited, wild, and perfectly rough around the edges. But the real beauty of The Hound Dog Hill is that their sound rings just as true around a burning campfire in a little place called Blue Grass as it does in front of hundreds.
