Harris Lapiroff & Here on the Hill
Door only
Heymaker Harris hones his helical heys, heading for hysteria but hewing to hullabaloo. Here on the Hill, the hip and highfalutin will hop over the hokey-pokey and hustle, and head helter-skelter for a hurricane of happiness helped by the honky-tonk hootenanny here in the hall.

Here on the Hill
Here on the Hill is a pair of musicians who can’t resist playing together. The Boston-based duo has been making waves back home with the high-energy fiddling of Tory Horner, and the dynamic rhythm guitar of Rosemary Powell. We are thrilled to have them come down our way.
