Sleepy Hollow was an American art-pop trio from Philadelphia that released a self-titled album on the Family Productions label in 1972.
Members: Richard Billay (lead vocals, guitar, piano), Richie Bremen (bass), Joe Zucca (drums)
Background
Sleepy Hollow formed in Philadelphia, where singer and songwriter Richard Billay teamed with bassist Richie Bremen and drummer Joe Zucca. They were among a handful of acts (Mama Lion, Heavy Cruiser, Billy Joel, Velvert Turner Group) signed to Artie Ripp’s newly formed Family Productions label.
They recorded their album with veteran Philly producer John Madara and string/horn arranger Tom Sellers.
The Album
The three members of Sleepy Hollow disappeared from the scene apart from Billay, who issued re-recordings of “Take Me Back” and “Lay It on the Line” with Ripp, Madera, and Sellers at the helm. The two tracks appeared on a 1976 ATCO 7″.
