Holler and the Hand

Holler and the Hand write and perform a rich blend of Americana music that is uniquely their own. With helpings of rock, country, folk bluegrass, R&B and the blues, their songs are endlessly listenable and undeniably entertaining. From heartbreakers to uplifters, each song slides it’s way into you and sticks. Craig Cirinelli’s inspired singing resonates with a musical prowess, flair and bravado. His powerful voice draws you in, like hanging-out with a friend who has the most enigmatic stories. Growing up along rural roads, combined with a penchant for travel, Craig’s dusty delivery carries a time-worn flair as each song’s scenario is delivered upon the listener. Ed Rossman provides a perfect counterpoint with guitar playing that is at once percussive and spiky, yet then eased with a melodic and cinematic finesse. As his guitar work sings unto it’s own, Ed’s fingerpicking provides a bed of notes weaving their way into a foundation of harmony.
‘Tessera’ is their first mini-album, that will make a fans of both the hard-earned critic and the leisurely listener all the same. Honest, enlivening and anthemic, ‘Tessera’ is built for stomping your feet, rattling the cheap seats and honoring the FM dial's glory days.
