In the area in which the band grew up, there were a lot of old abandoned textile mills around. A lot of band members had families who worked in a few of those mills as kids and teenagers. There were many sections of the “Mill Hill Villages” in which people who worked at the mill would live. There was the “Boss” line for owners, foremen and management families. The “Side” and “Back” line held housing rows for the everyday mill worker’s families. This is where the name of the group came from. Tying a little piece of local history into something new.
