Earlier this year, Xylouris White, the collaborative duo of Cretan singer and laouto player Georgios Xylouris and Australian drummer Jim White, released The Forest In Me, which we, of course, fell in love with…
I absolutely love The Forest in Me; it smacks of confidence and creativity and is happy to shift expectations and deliver a sound so different to previous albums while keeping its core structure of lute and drums present. Each song surprises and leaves you wanting more, and at thirty minutes long, it is just too tempting to spin the thing again. I’ve enjoyed this duo since Goats came along in 2014, but this short, sharp and dynamic project is the one I’ve been waiting for.

Over the past decade, they’ve embarked upon countless tours across the world, finding people everywhere who have responded to their music. Xylouris White are on the road again this November with dates dotted across the US, Australia and Europe – including two nights at London’s superb Cafe OTO.
Every Xylouris White show is a journey through a spectrum of emotions and musical styles, reaffirming their shared musical chemistry and live performance mastery. Their hypnotic blend of rhythmic textures and carefully spun lyrical melodies are constructed with a fluid sense of improvisation, making for an always-evolving sound night after night! No matter where you find yourself on the planet, attending one of these upcoming evenings will inevitably change how you see things. Tickets are on sale now across all territories; come see Xylouris White play their music for everyone!
…experimental music with a huge heart.
