Springhill is a Pittsburgh based folk-rock band who has been influenced by a variety of artists, from The Beatles and Led Zeppelin to Ben Folds and Jack Johnson. Feel-good music reminiscent of the early '90's is layered behind melodies that will make you want to sing along. Added to the catchy pop/rock songs are improv solos by each member of the band, experimenting with their love of playing music. This smooth inventive feel-good jam with a pop/rock mix is sure to leave you wanting more.
"The vocalist has a fantastic tone that begs to be sung along to."
"This pop/jam band is the roll-down-the-windows-and-sing type."
-Independent Clauses
"Incredible melodies and infectious songwriting will be under your skin... often compared to R.E.M, Springhill provides the molded rock tunes that Pittsburgh NEEDS... it's what's been missing from the scene since flannel went out of style and emo came in."
-Beejae, Founder of Rock United
"You guy's have your own sound. It's like a cool hippie vibe but with nice hooks."
- Bob Wisenor, Pittsburgh Rock Press
"Their sound is more evolved than any other local band I have heard before and I can only assume they're headed for bigger things"
- Liz Suders, Holcad newspaper

Please
log in to review the album.
Finally variety has struck gold!
author: Brandon H
Tired of bands that create entire albums full of the same sound over and over? I certainly am. Springhill has created an album full of similiar songs that sound nothing alike. They have created that "Springhill" sound while still using a variety of tempos, hooks, lyrical melodies, and overall coolness. Bands like Nickelback and Linkin Park should take a lesson from these fellas on how NOT to suck. Do yourself a favor and purchase Contemporary Theories.

Wonderfully relaxing
author: Colin Dean
Springhill's sophomore album continues their relaxing rock sound and meaningful lyrics. "The Pirate Song" is an instant favorite, and for those who enjoy deep lyrics, "Long Live the King" is a treat. The entire album is catchy--you'll be tapping your toes and singing lyrics in no time.
