about

Set in the spooky Gippsland Hills where there's strange disappearances and no-one knows why the cattle stampede on the east side of the hill...

lyrics

Brother don’t go, Brother don’t go
Into the Haunted Hills

‘Cause old Jack Quidon, he’s 97,
But he remembers the date way back in ‘38
It was the 16th of May and to this very day
No-one can say what took ol’ Diamond away

So brother don’t go to the hills tonight
There’s a ghost on the wind and somethin’ ain’t right
There’s a howl in the trees, I’m beggin’ you please
Don’t go to the Haunted Hills

Then six years later there was young Jimmy Slater
He had a newspaper round in the very next town
He waved to his mama, said “I’ll be home by supper”
He rode off up the track, but he never came back

So brother don’t go to the hills tonight
There’s a ghost on the wind and somethin’ ain’t right
There’s a howl in the trees, I’m beggin’ you please
Don’t go to the Haunted Hills

There’s rumours around ‘bout a man leaving town
There’s stories been told he went out huntin’ gold
Now his horse can be seen runnin’ hungry and mean
Through them old hills at night, when the moon’s shinin’ bright

So brother don’t go to the hills tonight
There’s a ghost on the wind and somethin’ ain’t right
There’s an ill wind blowin’, and these old bones are knowin’
Don’t go to the Haunted Hills.

Brother don’t go
Brother don’t go
Into the Haunted Hills

Brother don’t go
Brother don’t go
Into the Haunted Hills

The Stetson Family walk the line between alt-country and bluegrass with their free-wheeling, spirited songs, awash with soaring harmonies. Described as "champions of fresh bluegrass but with a bedraggled soul of rock and roots," the band takes their audience on a journey down life's crooked highway.

"They blend like one of the legendary bluegrass or country families…” American Songwriter ... more
