NEW EDGE HILL ROUNDERS EP!!!
The Edge Hill Rounders have just released their third EP, The Grape, and it’s their best one yet! Containing three songs by Tim and one by Paul, and every song is a HIT. Here’s the lineup: 1. The Grape – a “Klesmerized” song about the history of the grape and of course its most popular use, in contrast to those other beverages … 2. Home Honey Home – a beautiful ballad in the style of Amos Lee. Sparse instrumentation and a beautiful guitar solo by John. 3. Gonna Die Young – a “rockabilly-ized” song by Paul, stating that even though he’s old, he’s “Gonna Die Young”. Inspiring and fun, and contains a SMOKIN’ guitar solo by “Broadway” Tom McCaffrey and an equally SMOKIN’ fiddle solo by John. 4. “I’ve Been Everywhere (In the Delaware Valley) – Local Philly fans will love this one, it’s a remake of the famous Johnny Cash song of the same name, but with all Philly area references. “I met Pierre Robert, man! I said Put me on the Air, man”! Streaming now on your favorite streaming services. Here’s the Spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/album/51eaTPUcFwIo07zSNxWZ47

The Edge Hill Rounders – Lanternfly

This is layered over bass, percussion, fiddle and guitar with a healthy dose of mandolin picking. At an Edge Hill Rounders performance you will hear original compositions, as well as some of your favorite songs and some that you don’t know but wish you had discovered a long time ago.Produced and mixed by Tom McCaffrey.
