   About Hilltop Fool

Initially the solo project of guitarist/vocalist Carl Blakey in late 2007; Hilltop Fool became a three-piece in March 2008 with the inclusion of vocalist Leeanne May and multi-instrumentalist Peter Andrews.

After a month of frenetic songwriting, practices, bottles of wine and open-mic nights, the trio at last recorded four of their demos for your listening pleasure.

Although, playing mostly contemporary folk music, each member brings their own sensibilities to the band - which leads to tracks having a wide range of influences from progressive rock, indie, blues, jazz and traditional music.

In Search Of A Rose - Kind Of Green

The Irish outlaw Reilly Ramones is not rambling along rainy green Irish valleys. This time he troubles the spotless under the hot Mexican sun and drowns Mariachi trumpets in Guinness.
Come and listen to the fine crossover of traditional irish tunes, Rock'n Roll and Hip Hop on the new album "Kind Of Green".
