"Mossy press"

Mossy Creek has been one of the most exciting surprises to come from the Brookdale
Bluegrass concert/festivals yet. Pat Haley was first noticed by Frank Sullivan at one of
the jams in the lobby of the hotel, and it was remarked, 'if you keep this up, you'll end up
on stage here!'
After Sid Lewis called to tell me about this fantastic new band from Chico, I had to see
them at the Brookdale as a tweener, and yes indeed they were fantastic! Incredible tight
bluegrass, with beautiful vocal harmony's between his daughter and himself. I love it
when families play bluegrass, it's a sound you can't get any other way.
The next time they played they took Saturday night to the limit, and just blew everyone
away. They are real crowd pleaser, and I look forward to seeing them play at all the
festivals in the future."
--Eric Burman.

"Mossy Creek--for me they just stole the show--OUTSTANDING...DON'T MISS
THEM...very impressive music and great singing..."
--Posting on the California Bluegrass Association Website

"Great vocals and a really tight band. Enjoyed hearing you play...I thought I was hearing
a CD and was very surprised when it was Mossy Creek playing live. That's a biggie to
someone who listens to Bluegrass on the radio and hears live music constantly. Keep
that tight sound...see you back in Tennessee..." - Kay Cadillac WDVX Ambassador

"...featuring some of Chico's finest pickers, Mossy Creek is on the verge of becoming
Chico's next musical 'big deal'."
--Sierra Nevada Big Room Review

"...Mossy Creek, the brand new band from the Chico area, was a revelation—the show
stoppers of the weekend, without doubt..."
--Rick Cornish, CBA Website, regarding Woodland Veteran's Day Festival

"...I so thoroughly enjoyed MOSSY CREEK!
What a fun talented band and Erin sure has some pipes and can sing her heart out...I just
was delighted with BOTH of their sets...and by the way, there was no token encore for
them...it was the REAL THING....and folks were applauding and insisting on an encore
performance...take note festival planners...this is a good band! THANKS!"
--Regina Bartlett, CBA Website Posting

"Christmas With Mossy Creek," Mossy Creek. "California bluegrass band Mossy
Creek...its album is a sweet and casual treat"
--Wayne Bledsoe, Knoxville News Sentinel Christmas CD Review

Bio

Mossy Creek began when Pat Haley and Dean Mott heard Pat's daughter Erin sing when she returned from 2 years at a music school in New York City. She was great! They gradually added talented local musicians to complete Mossy Creek. Early influences were Bluegrass and traditional music but their sound has evolved through fresh,original songwriting to become a unique blend of Americana/ Roots music. Mossy Creek features the magnetic lead vocals of Erin Haley, terrific arrangments with up to 4 part harmony's, and exeptional instrumental soloists including fiddle champion Christine Hogan and harmonica virtuoso Bob Littell. Ya have to hear it!
