THE HEDGE SCHOOLS - At The End Of A Winding Day (2024 Reissue) - LP - 180g Vinyl [JUN 14]

LP - Limited Edition 180g Black Vinyl. Remastered for this special reissue to mark the album's recent 10th Anniversary.

2023 marked the 10th Anniversary of when myself & Joe sat to record the batch of words and melodies that became At The End Of A Winding Day. A deeply personal set of songs for me back then, and they still are, for many reasons, and we never for one minute realized the reach and the impact it would have as a record. Throughout it we stayed true to it, were brave with it, let it become the quiet spaces that it did, let the Angels bells of the Blessington Street church fade out over the end of the opening track. It was meant to stay there. Joe has revisited it and brought a beautiful shine back to its corners .My memories of Donagh and Kevin playing and devotion to details with it are sharpened, and awakened once more. We are delighted to partner with Dublin Vinyl & indie retailers to help it be heard yet again. - Pat, 2023.

When Donagh Molloy and Kevin Murphy came on board, they just really got it and so much of the beauty of the record is down to them really. - Joe, 2023.
