DESCRIPTION:
'Mossy Lea' is a track taken from 'The Family Tree' album by Gavin Barras which was released in March 2017 on ASC Records. This tune is inspired by an area of The Peak District in Derbyshire, UK. Featuring Jeff Guntren on tenor saxophone, Jim Faulkner on guitar and Dave Walsh on drums.

This new album features the double bass Gavins father built for him over a 15 year period. It is a fantastic instrument which sounds even better than it looks! On two short interlude tracks Gavin plays a steel string acoustic guitar also built by his father back in 1967. Recorded at 80 Hertz Studios in Manchester, ‘The Family Tree’ contains ten original compositions by Gavin influenced by the themes of fatherhood, friendship and home.
