A rather complex looking keyed fiddle is the feature on this rather lively CD. The nyckelharpa is featured on every track and produces a full sound, like there's more than one player here and the more you hear it the more amazing it sounds. Young Gavin may just have found himself a serious niche in 'Celtic music circles.
Have a listen!!!
