His recording and live work as Quiet Loner has won him many accolades, including Americana UK Album of the Year 2004 for his debut LP ‘Secret Ruler of the World’. His 2010 release 'Spectrology' is a stark and honest collection of performances recorded deep in the English countryside during the big freeze of January 2010.
Produced by Mat Martin (Kirsty McGee) it features contributions from Inge Thomson (Bonnie Prince Billy, Broken Family Band), Roy Dodds (Fairground Attraction) and long term collaborator Alan Cook (Jackie Leven, Michael Weston King). 'Spectrology' has had 4 star reviews in the Daily Mirror, Uncut, R2 and Maverick, radio play on BBC 6Music and reached #1 in the Americana UK/Maverick americana charts.
Inspired by the storytelling traditions of American folk and country music, Hill’s songs also have a distinctly British lyrical bite and cover love, loss, infidelity, suicide, attempted murder, capital punishment, the database state, terrorism, religion, war, fallen angels, the secret rulers of the world and the redemptive power of country music. Hill is an accomplished raconteur and powerful live performer delivering a show that is emotional, often funny, usually political, occasionally angry, sometimes satirical but nearly always gentle and human.

I love his wisdom...
Its real..
Its true..
Its honest..
Its what more people need to understand..
It says alot about where he comes from and wich moral questions, pain and difficulties he had to face in order to have the wisdom he has..
Most people get lost in all thats negative and give up because thats the easiest wat..
He used his brains and turned all the negative shit in to positive thinking..
Now thats strenght!
He is the master of his fate
He is the captain of his soul
✌
