Beech Hill's new album "Chameleon"

posted by Beech Hill on Monday March 16

Recorded in MacInnis’ home studio, and mixed and mastered by Mike Ryan of The Town Heroes, “Chameleon” is a wholesome slice of Indie-Folk with unexpected - yet welcome - moments of driving, grooving traditional Rock.

Lead by singles ‘Painted Pictures’, an introspective, folk-infused exploration of life, and ‘Derevaun Seraun’, a fear-defying letter of encouragement to James Joyce’s Eveline character, “Chameleon” tackles change as a concept by way of life, death and love.

released March 13, 2020

Mix and Mastered by Mike Ryan
Recored at MacInnis' Home Studio

Cover by Rochelle MacQuarrie
