Highlights include Luke Faust's 2018 tune If I were well which showcases Bill Bannon's dulcimer & guitar playing; John Parrott's poignant ballad Echoes (which
John originally called Traces) with a vibrant violin part by David Rimelis. Throughout the recording you can listen to Bill Bannon's remarkable guitar work and Gregory McLoughlin's steady and stunning upright bass parts.
