about

"The quartet’s second full-length album, 'Gravity Pulls,' boasts elegant fiddle and mandolin parts around the heartstring-pulling original tunes of Belfast-reared singer Leslie Rich and his American compatriot, Pete McCauley." —Chris Reimenschneider, Minneapolis Star Tribune, March 1, 2013

Funded via the generous support of fans through Kickstarter.com; the CD was un-officially released on March 1, 2013, with an official radio release scheduled for Summer 2013.

Their second full-length CD includes 9 new original tracks, a lyrical rendition of the traditional Scottish ballad “Wild Mountain Thyme,” and a newly-arranged cover of U2’s “In God’s Country.”

The Hounds of Finn are:
Leslie Rich - Vocals, Guitar, Bouzouki
Pete McCauley - Vocals, Guitar, Mandolin
Michelle MacGregor – Fiddle
David Draeger - Bodhran

Gravity Pulls also features: James Towns on Upright and Fretless Bass; Wolf Loescher on Drums and Percussion; Caleb Peterson on Whistle and Flute; Jimmy Sherman on Small Pipes; Steve Laven on Cello; Andy Bergman on Clarinet; Bill Nelson on Banjo; and Molly Clancy on backing Vocals.
