Revisiting a Total Eclipse of the Hills, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know that this week's episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show on Mushroom FM, is an encore presentation of a show I brought you on April 7, 2024, which was the eve of a very cool solar eclipse. So, you'll hear songs about the sun, the moon, eclipses and more! I am presently having a lovely weekend with my family, so I hope you will have an equally lovely time listening to this celestial blast from the past, and I hope to be with you live from The 7th Floor next Sunday.

It's Time for the Wearin' O' the Green, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know what's happening this weekend on Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show! As we are coming up on Saint Patrick's Day, it will be an all-Irish episode on Sunday, and this time, I've decided to revisit last year's Saint Patrick's Day episode from March 16th, 2025. This was also the occasion of the first anniversary of Come by the Hills returning to its original time-slot after having spent some years on Saturday afternoons. I hope you'll enjoy this encore presentation, and happy Saint Patrick's Day!

It's Another Show Revisited, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know that this week's episode of Come by the Hills is another encore presentation, this time from February 23, 2025. I hope you'll enjoy it! I've got a really special evening planned which sadly precludes me doing a live show, but after much debate between myself and myself, I think these plans are a must. So I hope you enjoy this blast from the relatively recent past, and as ever, I want to thank you for listening.

Hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know about the upcoming episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk and Celtic music show. This week, I've got a great mix of Folk-type music for your enjoyment.
