Environmentalist David Barrows’ Concept Album Alerts Our Drift to Doom

Saxophonist, environmentalist and now a musician who carries an important message, David Barrows is set to release his forthcoming concept album ‘The Species That Knew Too Much’ and it’s not one you want to miss.

Assembling a band of some of the UK’s top session musicians, Barrows has produced a concept album that hones in on the imposing worldly problem that will affect all of us… extinction. Through the jaunty, catchy melody of lead track ‘Apocalypso’, Barrows relays a message of excelling importance through a satirical blend of jazz, reggae and blues.

Tackling the issues facing Mankind face-on, from climate-change, destruction of habitats and species to rampant nationalism, misogyny and violence, Barrows uses the power of music to strike an impact.

From a suitably creative background – his aunt wrote the 1967 number hit, “Windy”, by The Association, whilst his parents were top writers for television in Hollywood on shows such as ‘Mission Impossible’ and ‘Bonanza’ – David studied jazz saxophone under the tutelage of Blue Note recording artist Joe Henderson.

Seeing his own work already featured in film, theatre and even the Lego Island computer game, Barrows forthcoming album not only his own wealth of musical expertise but also an essential contribution to the awareness of a growing issue – not to mention his own voluntary gift of a percentage of the album’s proceeds gifted to Extinction Rebellion.
